Bubble Bandana is a beautifully thought-out pattern with some great details. Combining a few simple techniques this Bandana is worked in Garter Stitch throughout. Starting off working flat, establishing the Front and Back Vee’s, the Bandana is then worked in the round for the Body. The Body decreases slowly to the top where a simple Seed Stitch, Bobble, and Lace repeat is worked before the icord bind off. I love the shape of this Bubble Bandana; the fit is superb with the Front and Back Vee covering the back of your neck and falling into a deep Vee in the Front. The longer Body snuggles around your neck so cozy, and the top pattern and three Tassel detail at the bottom adds some style! I know you will enjoy making this and wearing it even more!
