Pick Me Up Bow

I <3 bows

Whipped up this little confection for my friend. I love hair accessories- instant gratification. I may just have to make one for me!

Moss Stitch Bow Headband

Of course even this simple pattern I couldn’t leave well enough alone.

I made the bow a little smaller, casting on only 11 sts and working until it measured 5″ for main
section. The loop was therefore only 2.5″ long. I also CO the bow alternating in
pattern with my Purl
Long Tail Cast-On
to match the bind-off in-pattern better.

For the Loop, to avoid sewing, I used a provisional cast-on and the three-needle bind-off to join the ends together.

Also I made two bands instead of three since it seemed sufficient for this
size.

Just made 2 bands instead of 3
