The Design:
The Breathy Bandana by Brooknit Bonneterie is the perfect addition to your wardrobe.
Wear it around your neck, tight or loose, or on your hair like a headband.
The textured eyelet design makes it breathable and lightweight, perfect for mid-seasons like Spring and Fall or chillier summer nights. It is gentle and strong, soft and cozy, stretchy, and easy to keep on.
Merino wool's softness makes it ideal for keeping the chills at bay.
Why “Breathy”?
The eyelets create an airy yet perfect texture for handling breezy air.
Pick your favorite color, the one that goes with everything, or a special one that will stand out.
The Process:
It is knitted flat in a very simple sequence of eyelets, with regular increases in the first section, straight in the middle, and decreases in the last section on both sides. It is a triangle shape, exactly like we fold and shape a bandana.
The edges are designed as an I-cord on 3 stitches.
It is simple, but it will require enough attention and focus to keep track of your progress and make it entertaining.
