Knit Turban/headband

Hi everyone!! Sorry I have not been posting but I have been knitting a lot of different things and I am finally going to start putting them on my blog!

So I definitely have been loving the "turban" headband for this winter. I found a free pattern from pinterest. Here is the direct link

I had some leftover size 5 bulky weight yarn that I used for this pattern. I did use size 10 needles and followed the pattern.
The yarn I used was Lion Brand Wool Ease Chunky

1. Cast on 12 stitches... the pattern says using double-cast on. I used a regular cast on and the headband came out perfectly fine.
2. To create seed stitch
                  a. row 1: k1, p1
                  b. row 2: p1, k1
Repeat rows 1 and 2 until desired length to wrap snug around your head!
I didn't exactly measure because I used my head to measure when to stop knitting :) However, the next time I make one, I will measure before I bind off! This turban requires less than one skein of yarn!! :)

3. I did the bind-off in pattern and then just seamed the ends together using a tapestry needle. Then you just put yarn around the seam to your liking of how big you want the "knob" in the front. I cut the end and again weaved the end through the back of the knob so I knew it wouldn't get unwound.

Here are my results!

This is a really quick knit and super cute!!

Happy Knitting!! Xoxo
