A Mom's Year

Creating a comfortable life one moment at a time

January 5, 2011

Knitted Headband

I knitted this headband for my friend Christina. Happy birthday! Doesn’t she look great? I used this pattern from Martha Stewart Living. There are garter-stitch and cable versions. I stuck with garter stitch, but I’d like to try the cable version once I get my courage up. The pattern gives directions for making I-cords for the headband’s ties, but I like visual directions when possible, so I went here for help.

I love the Chloe sweater from Never Not Knitting. I have a little goddaughter with a birthday in March. If I got started now, I just might finish this in time. I’ve never done buttons before, but I’m sure Knitting Help will have a video to walk me through the process.

  • Day 5 of the 100 Push-Ups Challenge. It’s not too late to join in.
  • Are you in an organizing frame of mind? Take a look at this fantastic project board from Marta Writes. I have an empty bulletin board just waiting to be filled.
  • Doesn’t this peanut butter pie look delicious? I think we’ll be having it for dessert this weekend.

(Update: We made the peanut butter pie and it was so good. Michelle at One Ordinary Day said it was rich and she wasn’t kidding. Definitely a keeper.)

That time the dance studio opened in town but not That time the dance studio opened in town but not enough people signed up for adult tap so my husband did because I was so bummed and then he had to perform “Cowboy Casanova” in the recital. 😂❤️ Such a good sport. (This varsity athlete and Division 1 college lacrosse player said learning tap was the hardest thing he ever did. 😂)
