Morgan asked for a headband, sending me a few ideas of what she was looking for. I headed to Ravelry and found so many cute designs, but settled on the Whitney Headband. I had a skein of merino/alpaca blend in my stash that was perfect.
The biggest problem I had was finding a knitted flower. I read a few patterns and finally came up with my own flower pattern. I topped it off with a vintage button. Great don't you think?
