Crochet Cable Stitch Head Wrap



 Summer is here and so I reach for the cotton yarns. Still trying a variety of yarns. I have heavier weight cotton yarn and the lighter weight yarn (some with a slight sheen to it). I had several balls leftover from another project and wanted to crochet a new head wrap. I wear my hair naturally and nothing like a cotton head wrap to hold my hair up and back. Added advantage is did the cotton yarn soaks up perspiration, stays in place and keeps me cool. (Some African-American women who wear Their hair in its natural state might also argue that) Others june question why I say head wrap .... well it is apart of my culture, I simply wrap it around the top part of my head and secure it. This Particular one I am working on; I have a new idea as to how to secure it on my head instead of using a tying method or tucking it in.
Here is part of the head wrap. I wanted to see what the crocheted cable stitch would look like in a cotton yarn. It has a bit of thickness but still quite comfortable. and holds well.



Hoping to be finished by Saturday. Stay tuned!

Until next time Keep the Faith and plenty of yarn!
