Easy and sweet headband that I designed to teach my knitting students. Great to learn and practice increases, decreases and lace.
Lovely to wear too!

This headband is knitted sideways, first increasing stitches to get the shape of a leaf, then a central section is worked to give length and finally a button hole and some decreases will create the second leaf.

Notes
The lace pattern is charted and written. Please match your gauge for best results.
