The Hatdana is knit from pointed tip to ribbed hem. The bandana portion is worked flat using yarn over increases. The stitches are then joined in the round for ribbing. It features decorative details such as the tiny tassels on the pointed tip. There is an elegant, but minimal, cable down the length of the crown, a continuous slip stitch edge around the bandana opening, and a sewn stretchy bind off to frame your face! Every tiny detail is intentional, so that this accessory is both functional and beautiful!
