This is a knit headband pattern inspired by a retro 80’s look.

The headband is knit in the round and then sewn together using the Kitchener stitch. There are 4 sizes available: Childs, teen/adult small, adult medium, and adult large.

The pattern uses one main color (50yds), and three contrast colors (20yds each).

This is an intermediate pattern and knitters should know how to do a provisional crochet cast on, knit in the round, do stranded colorwork, and do the kitchener stitch.
