Trendy Loom Knit Fall & Winter Ear Warmer Headband
This tutorial/pattern requires basic know how on the long loom but if you are a beginner, I’ve included links that were helpful to me of the techniques mentioned below from other knitters on Youtube.
Supplies Needed
- Knifty Knitter 48 peg round loom (Purple) You can purchase the Knifty Knitter Purple Adult Hat Loom
on Amazon.
- 1 skein of Hometown USA
- Hook tool
- Plastic Needle
- Optional: Flower loom to make a yarn flower, scraps of fabric, buttons… anything you’d love to use to style it up!
Instructions
Using one strand of yarn, e-wrap cast on.
For the first 9 rows, do a knit 2 and purl 2 pattern for the brim. Row 10-24 knit stitch. Rows 25-31 repeat the knit 2 and purl 2 pattern you began with. Finish with the stretchy bind off in which a video example can be found HERE. You’ll want to wrap your yarn around the loom 4 times and then cut so you’ll have enough yarn to bind off and weave in. Voila! You have a trendy ear warmer headband for the Fall and Winter season.

I would like to ask Erin if this headband could be finished as a hat as opposed to a headband and also if this can be done on a 41 peg loom.
Thanks for sharing this pattern! It looks just perfect for my daughter-in-law!
I believe it could be. You’d just need to knit further and then cast off the top as you would a normal loom knit hat. Let me know how it comes out if you try!
Thank you for responding. I am going to give it a try and will let you know how it comes out. Do you have any idea how many more rows of knitting I might need to do? I am definitely a beginner here and not very confident! Thanks again!
I would just suggest counting how many rows make up an inch and then go up to desired head size from that measurement.
Thanks again. I will let you know how it comes out. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving!
