Firstly thank you so much for showing interest in my first published design! It has been such a wonderful and educational experience working on this piece. Lots of time and energy go into all the aspects of design work no matter how small the piece, that way I know I can provide the very best patterns to share with you all!

The Valkyrie Headband is a beautiful lace headband that takes inspiration from Sarah J Maas’ ‘A Court Of Silver Flames’,
a book following the epic journey of Nesta Archeron.
Nesta Archeron is known for her trademark crown braid which heavily influenced this design.
I hope knitting this piece finds you empowered by the strength and valor of the valkyries.

Sizing Details

This design is knit flat and can be knit as long as you need to fit any head shape. The width/depth of the headband will be 4”

Additional Information

I believe knitting this up in a DK weight that’s a 4-ply show’s off the lace patterning the best.
