Sometimes we just need a quick and easy knit. The Simple Bluster Headband is a perfect beginner pattern - if you know how to knit and you know how to purl, this headband is gonna be a sinch. The pattern is knit flat with no shaping. After binding off the classic twisted headband knot is created with a tiny seam. (Never fear! The pattern includes a photo tutorial to create the knot.) Make sure you have this pattern in your queue for the next time you need a no stress knit - it's an easy and quick project perfect for all skill levels, especially beginners.
 
The Simple Bluster headband features the broken rib design used in the other Bluster Patterns and is a simple knit with less than one skein of bulky weight yarn. Its knit with only two stitches, no shaping and a short seam, which makes it a great beginner pattern. Check out the other Bluster Patterns here!
