We designed this headband to add a versatile smaller accessory to our collection. In 2021, Sarah had the idea to design a headband that was made as a tube, knit using an open knitted lace pattern.
The idea was to create a piece that used a light and lofty fabric, that was then doubled - creating a headband that is both extra warm, has beautiful texture AND is squishy and comfy. She added the twist at the crown to create a beautiful frame around the face. She created a sample, and wore it for the winter.
Meanwhile, Kusum had created a beautiful new shawl design. Sarah visited Naggar in the Spring of 2022, and taught the women the technique she'd used to create a twist in a headband. Kullvi WHIMS then incorporated one of the lace patterns from the shawl that Kusum had designed into the design. Mohini knit up the first sample, and the rest is history!
