©Annie Modesitt 2008
A fun and easy head wrap which uses a simple triple wrapped drop stitch.
As your Local Yarn Shop to show you a provisional cast on and a 3-needle bind off!
...and while you’re there - get some yarn or needles - support them or they won’t be there to help with stuff like this!
Instructions
Using a provisional cast on, CO 30 sts
Follow chart, repeating TTD stitch across 28 center stitches in row 3 of each repeat until
piece is long enough to easily fit around head, end with row 2 or 6.
Working on the RS of piece, slip provisional CO sts onto a separate needle (so that point
of needle is positioned to start a WS row)
Align the needles so both points are together - the piece will form a moebius twist.
