DESIGNER: KRISTIN BRYNJA

The KITE BANDANA knitting pattern is a perfect project for using leftover yarn from your stash in combination with our luxurious PURE silk.
For a easy start, check out our video tutorials HERE or find them at the bottom of this page.

The Kite Bandana is the cheeky little sister of the diamond shaped version of our Keel silk scarf. We were inspired by the very popular little sassy silk neckerchiefs that top off your outfits with some neat stripes. For more depth and textural interest we worked the stripes alternating our shiny PURE silk yarn and our wool/silk LAMB yarn.

You can buy the pattern here or head to RAVELRY if you prefer.

CONSTRUCTION

The bandana is worked in the round from the outer edge towards the centre. After casting on stitches for the outer edge using the scrap yarn and a provisional cast-on, you continue with the working yarn.

First you work a few rows back and forth in double knit- ting (Italian/tubular cast-on) for a narrow edge. Where after you join for working in the round in stocking stitch, decreasing at each of the four corners in a particular rhythm to create a diamond shape. Finally, the last few stitches are pulled together at the centre.
