I have been seeing super cute knot headbands all over the place and I have been wanting to make some for Hannie....but I also wanted them to be something she could put on herself and not half to tie at the top of her head. So, the other day I pulled out some Riley Blake knits and went to work on a prototype that would have a "fake knot" at the top so it was just a headband for easy putting on and off.
