Criss Cross Knit Cable Pattern Headband
I love cables and this pattern looks great when used for Winter Headband Earwarmers. I used worsted weight wool yarn and Size 8 knitting needles for the one pictured.
This pattern is worked in a multiple of 6 stitches. You can adjust the width by subtracting or adding 6 stitches.
This pattern uses 4 knit stitches at each side for edging.
For a Narrow or Childs size I would Cast on 20. 8 would be the edges and the pattern would be worked on the other 12.
Stitches Used:
P- Purl
K - Knit
sl st - slip stitch
dpn - double pointed needle or cable holder
