This lacy headband is knitted with an alpaca/silk yarn but could be knitted in silk or any other sport or 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.
