It’s spring and the first little flowers are showing their head and give some colour after a more or less monochrome winter. Spring will be there with colours all over!

This lacy beaded headband is knitted with a handspun yarn but could be knitted any other DK weight yarn.
It is perfect for leftover or a small amount of handspun.

It is a very fast knit and therefore perfect for a last minute gift.

This headband has negative ease to fit perfectly and not to fall off. It is important not to knit it too loose. If you are a loose knitter, please go one or two needle sizes down.

The size is unique (50-54 cm) but could be easily adapted as you have just to add one or two more repeat to fit an adult head with 56 cm.

It is a perfect project if you want to try to add beads in your knitting as there are only 26 beads 6/0 to add with a very fine crochet hook.
