Fast Finger Knit Headband

Senior picture time is upon us and being my daughter's name is Winter, naturally we wanted a few photos out in the snow. This being the case we had to find a "cute coat." Even though we scored an adorable wool coat for $15 something was missing. Enter in my new found hobby of "arm knitting." Finding yarns to match we quickly realized even with a scarf something was missing, she needed something for her head. Remembering finger knitting from my childhood, I set out to see if I could create a headband to match her scarf. And voila` the finger knit headband was born! Decorating it with a flower made from "The Crochet Dude's -Bloom Loom" it turned into the perfect head ware for her cold snowy pictures. Because my daughter loved it so much and has received so many compliments on it, I have been making them like crazy for friends and family! 

This being the case when I was invited to participate in the "Fave Crafts Best Blogger Craft Contest" I knew I had to enter  my headband project!
