You may have heard of the word “clootie” in reference to the Scottish steamed pudding, a clootie dumpling? However, you might be less familiar with the word when it’s used to mean a piece of cloth, a patch, or an item of clothing.

Used in the latter way, it’s the perfect name for a knitted headband decorated with duplicate stitch (or Swiss darning); a technique commonly used for patching or mending fabric, and as a knitter, a very handy skill to have in your knitterly armoury!
