Free Knitting Pattern: Cabled Headband. Basic Cable: Working with cables can be a little mysterious for new knitters, but it's really easy to make simple cables. The best way is to just dive in and try one. This super-warm headband/earwamer is a great first cable project because it involves just one cable and is a small, quick-knitting project. It's also incredibly useful on those cold, windy winter days when you'd like to wear your hair back and still keep your ears warm. Materials: about 75 yards of chunky weight 100 percent wool (I used about half a hank of Manos del Uruguay in Cirrus, color 39) size 8 U.S. needles one cable needle or double-pointed needle scissors tapestry or yarn needle Gauge About four stitches and six rows per inch in garter stitch.
