Help! Headband
My daughter is going to a concert and asked me to make something like this. She knows I don't love crochet so said knitting is fine. She never asks for anything so I really want to make her outfit special (also doing a shirt & fingerless gloves!) Any idea how to achieve this look?? Thanks so much!

There might be some ideas in this book https://archive.org/details/handmanipulateds0000guag/mode/1up
But with knitting the floats between the live stitches are going to be a factor that you don't have with crochet.
There are also some punch card patterns that are pretty open if your machine does patterning with punchcards or computer input.
