Seed Collector Headband Knitting Pattern

The very first project I ever knit used dozens of yarns. I dove right into yarn collecting and mixing before I ever made anything plain or simple. As a result, my yarn stash is vast, with bits and bobs from previous projects in jars and baskets, just waiting to be played with. It’s the same way with plants and seeds for my garden. Jars of seeds, some alphabetized, some in little envelopes, collected and ready to make flowers.

I’ve got several patterns with flowers in my sketch book this spring, and this is the first one I am working up. The Seed Collector Headband can be worked up a number of ways depending on your preference; you can do simple colorwork, add a purl bump for texture, or wrap your yarn into a tiny bobble to make the flower pop. You could even sew little buttons or jewels on the flowers!

The pattern uses Super Bulky yarn, or yarns held together to make Super Bulky gauge. I have written the pattern for two sizes, adult m/l and adult xl/xxl, with instructions to adapt the pattern if needed. This headband coordinates with my Seed Collector Hat and Cowl patterns. I hope you find the patterns as useful and fun as I do.
