Stewart, that is. I thought I’d start a new blog full of recipes, crafts, and just stuff I’m interested in or have found useful. I’m not the craftiest person. I’m not the best cook. But I do have lots to say and now you all can partake. But let’s face it, I’m no Martha.

Headband Earwarmer

So my Sis-In-Law, Candice, has this headband/earwarmer/headwrap that she bought while up in New York. It’s really cute and LOOKED like something I could make.  The only problem is that it was KNIT… and I don’t knit. So I started searching online and found this and thought to myself, “I can make that.” I didn’t have a pattern though. They are pretty popular right now (especially out West) so people aren’t really giving away their patterns.

So I attempted it and here is how it turned out.

I’m pretty happy with how it turned out… especially since it was my first attempt on making something without a pattern. I think next time I would make it with a bulkier yarn and maybe a few alterations here and there. But overall I think it turned out ok. So many possibilities.

Now… I have a question for you. Would you buy this? I have NO idea how much I would sell it for but it was really fun to make and I would it do it in so many different colors.  So please give me your input or any advice you may have on ways I can make it better.  Thanks for stalking me.
