LoginThis headband pattern was adapted from a headband that Linda Ligon bought on the island of Taquile, Peru. Traditional colors and motifs emulate those of the original but are knitted to a larger gauge. Although the pattern calls for five skeins of yarn in different colors, this project requires small amounts of accent colors and is a great opportunity to knit up odds and ends of yarn, as did the knitter of the original headband.
