Reflective knitted cabled earwarmer

What I do for fun when its cold inside but I really want to be outside.

I have used red heart light reflective yarn and size 8mm needles. The yarn band suggests 6mm.

Repeat from * to fit your size. End four rows after a cable row to join nicely.

5 and a half repeats of the cabled pattern as shown in the picture fits my head around 22 inches snugly.

Cheers Tamsin.
