From Kathryn Schoendorf - “Calorimetry is a scientific term describing the measurement of heat lost or gained. Knit hats are a wonderful way to block out the cold, but when you have long hair it usually requires wearing it down, not often the most comfortable option on a blustery day. This headscarf allows you to wear your hair up while keeping your ears warm and preventing heat from escaping from the top of your head.”

From Knitty -
"As a devotee of creating hand-knitted gifts, I tend to run into the same problem every year: What can I make with just one skein and half a day?

I want to knit something practical, pretty, and looks like it took much longer to make than it did. Oh yeah, and it should be fun to knit. Tall order? Not really.

This headband is a great introduction to entrelac and by the time you’ve got it down, you’re finished!"

There is some homework for this class, you will need to have the I-cord made before the class starts. When you pre-register you will receive the supply list to get started.
