Webster is named after Webster Falls located in Dundas, ON, Canada. These falls were one of my favourite places to visit as a teen. The faux cable stitches remind me of the spiral stairs people used to be able to walk down to see the basin of the waterfall. The Webster headband is knit using Lion Brand Yarn, Wool-Ease Thick & Quick Solids. The design features squishy faux cables and a slip stitch edge that creates textural interest in the piece. Webster knits up quick and is perfect for markets or last-minute gifts.
