THIS HEADBAND IS SUPER EASY AND VERY WARM . DID NOT NEED MUCH YARN AT ALL . I WORKED WITH ARAN YARN , BUT I ALSO TRIED THIS PATTERN WITH SIMPLY CHUNKY AND IT LOOKS AMAZING. THIS STITCH IS SC FRONT POST BUT YOU WILL ALWAYS START AT THE BASE OF YOUR LAST SC. I ALSO NAMED THIS HEADBAND PAIGE - LEE 8 YEARS OLD GIRL FROM DEVON WHO IS MY BIGGEST FAN ....... OOOOOH BLESS HER .
