Headbands and Heartthrobs

I am officially done with all projects except my quilt. Yay for finishing projects! Since I am home for Thanksgiving, my Mom and I headed out yarn shopping today but had no luck. We found two balls of a pretty and soft Merino wool, one in dark emerald and one in a ruby tone, that will make beautiful headbands. Unfortunately, not the carmel color I was seeking or yarn for Taylor or Mom's inifinity scarves. Ah well. After a day out and about, we settled down to eat Mancino's and watch The Avengers, which was surprisingly hilarious and full of attractive guys. When I mentioned this, Taylor, Mom, and I each said different characters simultaneously and then all laughed. I guess that's what happens when the heroes from all the movies end up on the same set.



This headband is made from soft and warm Berocco Ultra Alpaca wool from my first trip to the yarn store downtown Wheaton. The pattern is an XOXO cable pattern that I found on Ravelry.com. The two metal buttons to close it were sent by Mom from the vintage button box back home. It's perfect for when I have my hair up in a bun, which is almost always.
