Home Spun Head Scarf 2017 Part 2
New
Plied Ball of Wool
In order to
match the Head Scarf body I decided to stick with the 3.25mm circular needles.
The pattern
I am using is not mine but one I have used before to edge other items such as
my Purple Head Scarf
Purple Bamboo Cotton Headscarf
This purple Head Scarf is what I based my Spun Head
Scarf upon though the first one was more triangular in shape and knitted with
Bamboo Cotton.
Knitted
Edging
As stated this edging pattern is not mine but Barbara
Palmer’s. It can be found for free online. I will post the link at the bottom
of the page.
Sewn
Edging
I made the edging long enough to sew all around the
main body plus enough to tie. In the above photograph I attached one edge to
the bottom right photograph and carried all the way around until it met. I then
sewed the two edges together and left the tail.
Now on the bottom left hand corner I picked up 5
stitches on the needle and continued with the edging pattern until I reached
the desired length.
At this point I have to admit I made a mistake. I
miscounted and cast off one wave too soon. As it appeared long enough to tie I
left it as it was as I couldn’t be bothered to unravel and correct it.
Home Spun Head Scarf Washed & Pressed
This is the final result. All that is left is for it to
dry and it is ready to wear.
