Last summer, when I was in Ukraine, my grandmother gave me some yarn. I really wanted to make something with it, but I couldn't invest the time in a sweater. So I decided on a headband. I used a herringbone stitch, which was recommended to me in a local knitting group I occasionally attend. The herringbone stitch is crazily complicated, but once you start, it starts making more sense. It's nice because it turned out really pretty and really warm. At the joint between the two sides, I ended up using some black velvet, and that helped tie the piece together.
