About this Event
Two-Session Workshop
Sundays, November 15 & 22 | 1:00–3:00 pm
Celtic Roots Headband is a cable lover’s delight! This beautiful headband features a wide Saxon cable across the forehead and down toward the ears, where the cabling gradually diminishes to a single cable at the nape. The design allows the headband to be worn with a variety of hairstyles, both up and down.
