Here we have a free knitting pattern for a really unusual looking cabled headband.
Made from super chunky yarn, it is cosy to wear and the unusual stitch pattern makes it a real eye catcher.
The headband shown in the photo is made from Paintbox Yarns Wool Mix Super Chunky Yarn.
You can however use any super chunky yarn that works with 10mm knitting needles.
