TIP FOR SWITCHING THREADS:
When switching ball with Polaris, split the old thread in two on
the last 15 cm – cut off one part, do the same on the new thread.
Place the first and last 15 cm on top of each other so that the
yarn is the normal thickness and continue to work – this is done
to make the thread switch invisible in the yarn.
HEAD BAND:
Worked back and forth in one long piece that is sewn tog when finished.
Cast on 12 sts on needle size 12 mm with Polaris.
Work diagram M.1 until piece measures approx 50 cm - finish
after 1 whole repetition. Work 1 row in stocking st before
loosely casting off.
Sew tog cast on edge and cast off edge, sew edge to edge to
avoid a chunky seam.
