Villa Headband is a very lovely and elegant headband. It begins with Judy's Magic Cast-On and is then worked in the round in broken rib. It is finished off with the prettiest crocheted scalloped edge at the top and bottom, as well as a beautiful double knitted ribbon in the middle. Villa Headband can be worked in one color, but it is also well suited to being worked in different colored scrap yarn. The change of colors creates a lovely effect together with the broken rib. Villa Headband is designed in a single layer and is relatively tall. If you prefer a shorter version made in two layers, check out the Virginia Headband pattern in the same series.
