Pattern Overview
The Hues of Gold Headband features a simple dot stitch. The headband is knit in the round, and it is double-layered. The pattern is an 8-round repeat.
The cast-on and bind-off edges are seamed together, forming a decorative twist in the middle. The seam is hidden by the twist and is not visible.
First, you will cast on the required number of stitches. Next, you will knit a long tube until you reach your desired length. Then you will bind off the stitches. After that, you will seam the edges together to form the twist.

HUES OF GOLD HEADBAND KNITTING PATTERN
Headband
Cast on 56 stitches using the Long-tail cast-on. Place a stitch marker and join for working in the round, being careful not to twist the stitches.
Round 1: *k3, p1* to end.
Rounds 2-4: k to end.
Round 5: *k1, p1, k2* to end.
Rounds 6-8: k to end.
Repeat rounds 1-8 until the headband measures approximately 49 (51) 52.5cm/ 19.25 (20) 20.75in.
Bind off sts. Cut the yarn, leaving a 30cm (12″) tail for seaming.
At this step, it is best to wet block the finished headband and lay it flat to dry. Then weave in the cast-on tail.
Twist
Lay the headband flat.
Thread the yarn tail onto a tapestry needle. Fold each end of the headband in half, so they form a “V”.
Place one edge into another, making sure the yarn tail is not in between the layers.
Sew through the four layers of fabric from one end to the other. Go back and forth, making sure you go through all the layers.
Weave in the yarn tail. Turn the headband inside out.
