Since I was asked for it and I don't mind to share, this is the pattern for the Headband I made to match my Irish Hiking Scarf.
Yarn: Lion Wool, color Winter White or any other color of your choice
Needles: Straight #8us
Irish Hiking Cable Pattern:
Row 1 (WS): K2, P2, K2, P6, K2, P2, K2
Row 2 (RS): K4, P2, K6, P2, K4
Row 3, 5 & 7: As Row 1
Row 4 & 6: As Row 2
Row 8 (RS): K4, P2, C6F, P2, K4
Instructions:
Provisional Cast On 18 stitches. (KnittingHelp.com Tutorial Video)
Work Rows 2 & 3 once and then Row 8 (Cabling row)
Then, repeat the 8 rows of the IH Cable Pattern for about 19 " or whatever fits around your head comfortably minus 1 inch, ending with Row 5. I made 16 repeats for my Headband.
Join using Kitchener Stitch. (KnittingHelp.com Tutorial Video)
HINT: Measure the circumference of your head in the area you would wear a headband with a strand of yarn and then measure the yarn.
