I have a LOT of hair, and it’s out of control after no haircut for almost 4 months. I found some lovely knit headband patterns on Ravelry, but they were just too fussy knitting back and forth on just a few stitches. So, I came up with this idea.

This fun hat is perfect for Aran weight yarn with variable texture or color that gets lost in more complicated patterns. Traveling twisted stitches form a spiral on the body of the hat, and a twirl of I-cords tops it off.

I’m working on a matching fingerless mittens pattern. Will post when done!
