Sale's Ear Warmer

Sale, one of my friends at Chewonki, was on farm chores during the chilly winter and asked me to make her a headband. Of course, I obliged. So here it is!

Yes that is me wearing it. Right before she took it off my head. 
MC: Vanna's Choice- Grey Marble
CC: Vanna's Choice- Light Blue

Cast On 20 sts.

work 15 rows stockinette in MC
then 4 rows CC

repeat until it is a bit smaller around than the head you are knitting it for. You want it to stretch some so that it stays on and keeps the ears nice and snuggly.

Happy Stitchin!
