“Another project for leftover yarn, the ski band is easy and fast knitting. It is worked in Ribbing and the Garter Stitch.”

The ski band is worked holding two strands of yarn at once, one of each color. Dark Turquoise and Emerald are suggested in the pattern. One ounce of each color is required.

Finished measurements: 5” wide at widest (back) section by 20-22” long. The ribbed section is the front of the ski band across forehead.
