Keep your journal or notebook secure with an easy, quick-to-knit band with a built-in pen tab. The buttons are sewn through both layers of the band, but of course you can add button holes if you prefer. This small project is great for knitting on the go, as well as for using leftover yarn. Makes a great gift too, especially for pen-loving pals.
