FO Friday Headwrap

I saw this cute pattern for a Hilda Vintage-Inspired Headwrap on Sarah's blog so thought I'd give it a try. Mine isn't quite as pretty as hers as I think I did a couple of sections too long and it would benefit from a bit of blocking. However, it was a nice little knit and my daughter seems to like it :-)

She prefers to wear it this way round though so I might just sew it closed. Think I'll block it first and see how it improves and then decide

Yarn is Knit-Picks Chroma Worsted in Lollipop that was left over from the rainbow wristwarmers I made last year.

Edit! Reading fail, I missed out the last stage of sewing the bow into the right shape! Here's a photo of what it now looks like!

    What a cutie!

    I see you didn't sew the bow over - mine was floppy until I did that too, so if you want the bow to stand up, just fold each half over and stitch along the sides as per the photos on the pattern and it should stand up just great :D

    Have a lovely weekend

    HA! I love the tough girl face in the first photo. She's definitely evoking Rosie the Riveter.
