Notes

Love this pattern! Knitted this in just a few hours.

I’ve been wanting something to keep my ears warm while I’ve got my hair up in a bun (when no beanie will fit)…

No mods.

Size
I did 13 repeats of the lace pattern. After blocking and wearing it for a couple of days, it measures 20 inches / 50.8 cm around when closed with a button and not stretched (i.e. not on my head). When I’m wearing it, it stretches to 22.5 inches / 57 cm. It’s a little bit tight for me, which is good because it stays on my head, but I might make another one with an extra half pattern repeat.
