Nilma Headband

This pattern is a roadmap, not a set of rigid rules! You have complete freedom to experiment. Feel free to use a yarn weight that produces a gauge between 12 sts to 22 sts per 4 in / 10 cm, or hold multiple strands of thinner yarn together to achieve the required gauge.

Choose a needle size that feels comfortable in your hands and produces the fabric you love—whether you prefer it dense and squishy or light and drapey. Don't be afraid to swatch and play.

This pattern creates a one-piece knit headband featuring two Cat-look Ears for decorative shaping. The band uses symmetrical decreases to transition smoothly from the body to I - Cord Ties.
