Samara Headband
"The Samara Headband is an easy beginner-friendly Tunisian crochet headband/ear warmer with a central braided travelling cable pattern. It is worked flat and seamed at the end using worsted weight yarn, which makes it a great functional accessory that is the perfect gifting option! You can make it in an evening or two and make it a last-minute present. Natural fibers, in particular wool or merino wool are recommended for this pattern as they are a great option for wearing close to skin and make the cable stand out."
