LOOM KNIT TWISTED HEADBAND...

My life is so busy right now that I don't always have time to do my hair. I'm bored with ball caps so I've decided to knit some pretty headbands to wear instead.  Headbands are cute and they also keep your head extra warm during the cold months of winter.  This is one of the patterns I came up with.  This pretty headband can be loom knit in one evening.  I hope you enjoy this pattern as much as I do!
