my next project.

Anthropologie: Roaring Rose Head Wrap - photo

This is the Roaring Rose headband from Anthropologie, which I discovered recently in the winter catalog. I was super excited when I got it and spent a good fifteen minutes looking at the pictures (and the prices). Since I have misplaced my entire collection of hats and gloves somehow in the move to Tyler's house, I am on a mission to make a few hats before it gets too cold and I get stuck with outside recess duty:( 
Anyhow, this is super simple to knit, if you are a knitter that is:) 
The ribbed top and bottom are a K2P2 combination. The middle section of the headband is stockinette stitch. This can all be done on double pointed or circular needles (or regular needles if you want a seam up the back). 
If you don't want to embark on the task of knitting all of the separate flowers, it would be equally as unique to simply pin a flower on it. I have a feeling I will be knitting the flowers....but thats just me:) 
I can't wait to see how this turns out! Hopefully it won't take too long and I'll be able to post a photo!
