The Yonsei headband was designed for my sister. She recently left to study at Yonsei University in South-Korea for a year as an exchange student. She asked me for a nice headband that would keep her ears warm. The Yonsei headband is a double layered headband with cables on one side and stockinette on the other. The double layers keep your ears nice and toasty. The headband is worked in the round.

The headband can be made to fit any head circumference.

Gauge is 5 stitches per inch and 7 rows per inch in stockinette, but gauge isn’t crucial for this pattern.

The pattern can be worked from a chart or from written instructions.

Materials:
• 150 meters (164 yards) aran weight yarn.
• 4.5 mm (Us 7) double pointed or circular needles.
• Cable needle.
• Tapestry needle.

Sample was knit in Garnstudio Drops Nepal in colourway 0501 and used 98 grams/ 147 meters (160 yards). Sample was knit for a 23 inch head circumference.
