Velociraptor Sep 2022 1:39pm, 24 Sep 2022 59,908 posts	0 Velociraptor What weight of yarn do you plan to use for the headband, Pix? If you have a 40cm circular needle in the appropriate size, using the stitch count for a hat would work for a headband, you just wouldn't need to work the crown.

Velociraptor Sep 2022 4:35pm, 24 Sep 2022 59,911 posts	0 Velociraptor I suspect that if you put "easy" "DK" and "sweater" into a Ravelry search you'll get an avalanche of them, Pix. I probably have old paper patterns for basic jumpers knitted in pieces too. (I don't use them, I make stuff up as I go along because knitting's just loops, sticks and maths.)
