Hi there!

Headband for Daria Hello! I am Olga, I am 30, and I love to knit. (And crochet, too!). Also I am ignia on Ravelry.

After a recent database crash or something (don’t ask for I have no answer, I am not good at this “web programming” stuff) this blog became empty, and I choose not to try to recover it but simply start over. The “magic kick” to finally do this was… knitting. :)

See, one of my colleagues, Daria, has been bugging me with “My ears are cold!” mantra since I’ve presented her with a pair of mittens. Well, she is one of the knit-worthy people around me, so I promised her a headband and started to look for a perfect pattern. Guess what? I found it! Julia’s Cabled Headband Pattern by Paulina Chin. The link will take you to Paulina’s blog, the pattern is published there. Paulina gave beautifully written instructions, but I am a kind of knitter who prefers working from chart, so I’ve made one. This link should take you to the PDF file (and you’ll need a free Acrobat Reader to read it), but please remember that it is not a complete pattern and visit Paulina’s blog for all the info and have fun!

Almost forgot. You can see what the finished headband looks like on the picture up there ↑. :)

    What a beautiful chart of this pattern. Thank you so much for sharing it! What software did you use to make it. I am looking for a software system for charting my patterns. Thanks!

      Hello Eve,
      I didn’t use any special software: it’s MS Excel table made with Aire River Knitting Font (link) and printed into pdf.
      Good luck!
      Olga
