This Vintage-Style Knit Headband is Perfect for Summer

I hate real headbands because they always feel like they are pinching my head, but knit and crocheted headbands I can get behind (I actually just made myself a finger-crocheted headband that was super simple and is really cute and comfortable if you want to check it out).

Mama in a Stitch has a great knitting pattern for a vintage-style tie headband that’s knit in Seed Stitch with little Stockinette ties. You could also work it in Garter Stitch if you wanted to make it even easier.

All you need to know to knit this is knitting, purling, make 1 and knit 2 together. It’s really simple shaping, I promise.

These would make great gifts for anyone who likes to keep their hair out of their face, and they don’t take long so you can knit a bunch in different colors to go with all your outfits.

What do you think? I think it’s adorable and I want one for me and one for the girl right now.

I love a good pattern with a bit of whimsy, and luckily for me that’s easy to find when it comes to Easter knitting patterns. Read on for fun patterns with a theme of bunnies, chicks and eggs, perfect to knit for Easter and beyond.

There’s something about the combination of babies and Easter (and knit things, of course) that is just extra cute, so I couldn’t help sharing this bunny ear hat for babies from Catherine Anfield. It’s actually a set that includes a matching romper, but I’m focused on that sweet hat with the droopy bunny ears. It’s worked in worsted weight yarn, sized to fit a newborn and available on Ravelry.

For bigger kids and adults, Amanda Berry has this cute bunny ears headband, which is a free pattern on Ravelry. They call for bulky weight yarn and are worked in garter stitch, so they’re a great project for beginners.

Whether your egg hunt involves real eggs or the candy variety, you might want to knit up something to keep them warm. WarmandKnittedS on Etsy has a cute set of egg warmers with an Easter twist including a little hat, a chick, a bunny, an owl, a carrot and a sheep. The patterns call for sport weight yarn.

The patterns from Wild Welsh Knitting say they are specifically for creme eggs, but they would probably cozy real eggs just fine, too. This set includes a rabbit, hen, chick and piggy all worked in DK weight yarn. These knit up super fast for a fun little addition to your egg hunt or as a fundraiser.

How about eggs that look like bunnies? Amy Gunderson has this cute pattern (with knit and crochet versions) for an egg shaped rabbit that looks like it’s wearing a little ear hat made with a contrasting color. The pattern calls for worsted weight yarn, but try different weights to get different sizes of eggs. You can find the pattern, called Egg-cited, on Ravelry.
