Pelagic Headband by Marina Skua

Craft: Knitting

Reminiscent of the rhythmic lapping of sea waves, the traveling ribbed stitches on the Pelagic Headband are also found on our Pelagic Cardigan. It can easily be imagined keeping your ears warm on a seaside excursion, but would be perfect for any outdoor adventure.

Starting with a provisional cast-on, the headband is worked flat and grafted together. It’s made in Tundra, a bulky weight blend of fine Merino wool, baby alpaca, and silk that will provide lightweight warmth and a plump, bouncy quality for cozy comfort. Get your needles ready for this quick and enjoyable knit—you may feel compelled to make more than one!
