Another of the projects I finished way back before I started blogging was my sister's headband. It was before I had graduated college during winter exams, so naturally I had dragged out my knitting stuff for something to distract myself from studying. It eventually transpired that, after some practice, I could knit and read on my computer (though not a book because I had to free hands to hold the thing open) and so make gifts while I studied.
It was in this time that I also discovered this gorgeous lace pattern. Well, I immediately thought of my sister when I saw it, and I knew I had this light blue, brown, and tan yarn around that I though would work well. I have since lost the name of the pattern, but, as long as the needles I'm using for the scarf are the same as the needles I used for the headband, then I used US 10 needles for this.
Now, I think I would have been better off using a solid colored yarn rather than variegated because I think the pattern would have stood out better, but I guess it's too late now. I'm still very pleased with how it turned out, even it the 24 stitch wide pattern was a little too wide for a headband.
I have pulled out this headband's matching scarf, and I'm going to begin work on that again soon, but for now, this has been another previously finished project.
Happy knitting!
