Knit the Icy Blue Twirl Headband!

This knitting pattern was made in Norway in January – while we were surrounded by ice and snow and the spring seemed so far away. Then It´s nice to sit inside and knit something warm and chunky for the winter weather.

Unlike other braided headbands, this has the same width all around the headband, and it can be made in three different sizes.
