Taught by Faith Hale
When it comes to knit projects, headbands are relatively quick to knit and are, as Faith's mom calls her when she's being helpful, "useful as well as decorative." In this in-depth class, Creativebug staff artist Faith Hale knits three headbands, one in a rib stitch finished with a twist, one featuring honeycomb cables, and a delicate lace pattern that ties in the back. Along the way you'll learn special techniques like seaming, working an i-cord, a provisional cast-on, and reading a lace chart. Whether to rescue a bad hair day or provide a touch of extra warmth, knitting these headbands are a quick way to learn new skills and the results are sweet and stylish.

I have 4 great grand daughters who live abroad and will be visiting in the late fall early winter. I think this is the perfect little gift the girls would like two are 2 years and two are 4 & 6. The 2 year old are part of a triplet they have a brother and I will knit a hat for him.
