Very Warm Headband Using Blue Sky Fibers Woolstok
The Design
This little pattern comes courtesy of the inspiring, intrepid, irrepressible Shirley Grade, who operated the Yarn House in Elm Grove, Wisconsin, into her 80s. Thanks again, Shirl! The slipped stitches at the end of each row result in an I-cord edging that smooshes the garter ridges closer for extra toastiness.
Blue Sky Fibers Woolstok makes a light, sturdy Very Warm Headband! Made from the fleece of select Peruvian Highland sheep, Woolstok is gently plied, giving a lofty lightness to your ear warmer without compromising any woolly warmth.
