I bet you couldn't tell how much I enjoy making these headbands. They work up quickly, are warm and fun to wear.
Remember the sad rescue situation that the Cavalier World witnessed in Alabama that I wrote about? Well…one of the Cavalier Rescue groups ran an auction as a fund raiser to secure the funds to get the dogs out of the auction house. I donated as much as I could afford to financially and then offered the only thing I knew that might raise additional funds in the auction….my knitting skills.
4 of these headbands will be keeping ears warm and the funds helped to keep our sweet Cavalier sweeties out of the Amish puppy mills and into loving homes.
For someone who hates to knit that second sock, I really enjoy knitting these headbands.
Bonne also has a beautiful slouchy hat in the pattern booklet that I am going to knit next…it's lovely!
Thank you Bonne for your beautiful designs!

What a great idea for a prize! That is so great that the group was able to save puppies.

Are those hard to knit? They look complicated, Kim. I really have to start knitting cables again, I did years ago and now can’t remember how. meh.
