Winter Chunky Headbands


I designed these fun but functional chunky headbands. Living in Northern Minnesota means the winters get cold and the wind is blustery. Made with chunky yarn, these headbands keep the ears warm and block the wind. For climates not as cold as the Northland, a headband is a great alternative to winter hats, providing that extra coverage.


Ears make any accessory more fun. Boys would also like to wear the brown bear ears shown above or the wolf ears below the bear ears. Grrrr! There's a wide range of colors available in chunky yarns.


My model's blue eyes pop with the blue headband. Pink, brown, blue, or purple, any color choice is a winner!


If ears don't fit in with an older child's fashion sense, the headband can be made without the ears. Perfect for tweens, teens, or adults. I just love this stylish, cozy headband. I think a lot of adults would enjoy this headband with or without the ears. We like to have fun also. It will be sure to put a smile on people's faces.


The pattern includes instructions for baby to adult sizes, with or without ears. Pattern can be found here on Etsy and here on Ravelry.


I included instructions for Beginners with a few options for more advanced knitters. With the large yarn it works up very quickly.
