or you can check out the pattern on Ravelry here.
The details:
This is a one-size-fits-most pattern, but it is easy to make it smaller or larger- just knit the bands a little longer or shorter, as needed. It’s easy to hold it around your head while still on the needles to ensure a good fit. I knit this on two (4mm (US 6) dpns. The bow is knit flat, seamed, and sewn onto the headband with just a few stitches at each bow end to keep it attached.
Needles: 4mm (US 6)
And of course, a tapestry needle and a button for the back closure.
You know, when my cousin first requested the headband, I was really dubious- I just couldn’t imagine how a big bow could look… grown up. But the trick is proportion- the bow isn’t too big and showy, and it’s not too small and twee. Positioning it on the side gives this headband a lot more 1920s style, I think. My cousin was right- a headband with a bow IS awesome.






Yay! Bows totally can be adult appropriate and glam!

I LOVE this! This is one of the very few knit headbands that doesn’t make me want to stab myself with knitting needles! Lol the bow is perfect. I love it!! I need to start flat ironing my hair so I can wear headbands again 🙂

Ok, this is seriously adorable. I’m totally late in commenting, but this went straight into my mental queue as soon as you posted it! I think it was Tanis who posted that it is such the perfect bow shape, and I totally agree!
