Knit Kit - Eyelet Headband

Skill Level - Easy

This alpaca wool knit kit uses alpaca yarn from British and Irish farms. The kit has enough to make one wide adult & one small child headband. Alternatively, you can wear them both together as a headband and neckwarmer. The end result = versatility and great value for money! It includes 5 buttons, which you can either finish the design off with or keep it simple and leave the buttons off. Shown here in DK WIne and DK Moss green.

This headband is from our Restful range, which is intended for stress-free easy knitting that means you can focus on the conversation, the movie or just whatever you need to be thinking about. Each pattern is simple to work with, and has been tested on beginners, rusty knitters, and the very accomplished. Everyone reports that the yarn is fabulous soft and lovely to work with and all the feedback is that the styles are very restful to knit, and lovely to wear!

As with all Gorgeous alpaca DK kits, it's warm and cosy, but lightweight and breathes well. The alpaca yarn has a small amount of 100% natural sheep's wool blended in, which makes it easy to knit with, and still retains that wonderful alpaca softness. The headband/neckwarmer can be washed by hand or in a machine on a wool wash at 20 degrees.
