Ah, yes, Anthrolopogie... truly a great store, with great knit, braided headbands. My friend bought this one on sale for $12 back before Christmas, but the only other one they had was a pea green one that wouldn't go so well with most of my clothes (I love gray for it's versatility with any color!).
Well, being that I am obnoxiously cheap and that I like to thwart expensive retailers with my knitting prowess, I decided to knit one up for myself. Almost 3 months later, I finally finished my knit, braided headband, and I am very proud of myself. I was fairly hasty in finishing, so there are random loose yarn ends poking out, but I figure that will be hidden beneath my hair
. If I make more, I will be sure to weave the yarn ends in so that they are unseen. In any case, I am proud of myself for spending only $3 for yarn (again - cheap yarn from Wal-Mart because I am tightfisted!) and using ribbon that I had bought at Joann's for $1 per yard. Plus, I could make gazillions of these things using the same ball of yarn! Yay me!(And yes, I DO need to dye my hair. Hush!)
