About the Pattern

Romantic, Vintage-Inspired Detail

Sweetbriar Bandana is a softly shaped triangular bandana worked flat from the lower point to the top edge. Decorative eyelet increases create an easy, wearable silhouette, while a decorative eyelet top edge and knitted flower appliqué add a romantic, vintage-inspired finish.

Wear it tied at the nape as a classic headscarf, knotted at the neck, or draped loosely around the shoulders — a quick, satisfying knit that makes a lovely gift.
