The Pretty Waves Headband is a perfect one-night knitting project. With basic knitting stitches you can create a chic earwarmer for chilly days in a few hours. I recommend it for advanced beginner / intermediate knitters, who know how to knit, purl, decrease and increase. Basic crochet skills are also required. The pattern includes instructions for two sizes: small adult (approx. 16.6” / 48 cm long) and medium/large adult (21” / 54 cm), with a loose fit.

SKILL LEVEL: Easy (for intermediate knitters)
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS (AFTER BLOCKING AND EDGING): Small size: 19” / 48 cm Medium/Large Adult size: 21”/ 54 cm
