This toasty headband starts with a provisional cast-on and a bit of ribbing. Stitches are then placed on 2 needles to form a tube and increases are worked for the desired width before working the stranded colorwork in the round. Once the colorwork is done, stitches are decreased and then put back on 1 needle for another bit of ribbing before joining with a 3-needle bind-off.
