The two knitting needles should have the same width and size. In the trade you can buy them in a double pack. Alternatively, you can also use a circular needle. In most cases, the manufacturer of the wool gives his recommendation regarding the needle size on the label. Make sure the needles are suitable for the wool.
The prices for the wool depend on several factors. Therefore, they sometimes vary very much. It is best to compare different offers in advance. If in doubt, ask in the shop.
preparation
1. Measure the head circumference with the tape measure and note the value.
2. Now think about how wide the headband should be. Hit as many stitches to achieve the desired width. To knit a pearl pattern, you should assume an even number.
3. Thread the thread around the left hand. To do this, first place it from the little finger over the back of the hand. Then guide it past the index finger clockwise around the thumb and place it between the index and middle finger. The end of the thread should be long enough to complete the complete stitch stroke.
4. Place both needles on top of each other and grasp them with your right hand. Between thumb and forefinger, the thread has formed a cross. Lead the needles through the loop from the bottom right to the side of the thumb. Then, with the needles above the point where the thread crosses, grab the thread to the left of your forefinger and pull it through the loop. Below the resulting mesh, a knot has formed. Tighten it. Repeat this process until the desired number of stitches are on the needles.
5. Carefully pull one of the needles out of the stitch chain.
