About the Lottie Headband Project:

Calling all new knitters! When the weekend forecast calls for "sunny with a chance of brisk autumn walks," it's the perfect time to whip out some knitting needles and start making cozy headbands—the ideal learn-to-knit project as headbands are small and knit up so quickly. Bonus! Our yarn balls are so big; you can knit 2-3 headbands (depending on size) out of just one ball!
