LOLA LOVES HEADBANDS!
(especially ones that hug her ears!)
Twistola is a squishy cabled headband that keeps your ears warm AND stays on your head!  Thanks to a clever cable “pocket” that gently encapsulates your ears, this winter accessory is the perfect marriage of form and function.  Knit in the uber soft and breathable Danish yarn, Snefnug, Twistola is like a warm hug for your head.  You won’t want to take it off!

Kits for Proto-Lola were September’s shipment for Lola’s Choice (Laura’s super fun small knitted kit club). If you sign up now you'll start with Proto-Lola!!!
