Flowers & Pearls Headband

After making my Flowers & Pearls Floppy Hat, I knew I had to continue the series, and immediately tried to think of something else to continue the series with.  I decided that a big, cozy headband would be really fun for the winter, especially for some of the sportier fashionistas that like having their hair up.  I know a headband is definitely a must-have for me, and thought I'd share the pattern with all of you, as well!
