Easy Peasy Bandana Knitting Kit

A little cloud of cashmere and silk, ready to follow you through the seasons. The Easy Peasy Bandana is a simple triangular scarf that brings a lovely finishing touch to everyday outfits. Tie it loosely at the neck or tuck it into your favourite jumper for a little extra warmth.

Knitted in Cashmere Prime, its silk and cashmere blend has a delicate brushed finish, creating a wonderfully soft, airy fabric that feels gentle against the skin. Light and comfortable to wear, it adds warmth without feeling heavy or bulky.

This beginner-friendly design is worked sideways, increasing from one tip to the widest point before decreasing towards the other. With two strands held together throughout, it’s a satisfying little project to make for yourself or someone special.

Your kit includes:

• Two skeins of Cashmere Prime in your chosen colour.

• The Easy Peasy Bandana knitting pattern. ( Digital download after purchase, for printed pattern please leave a note at check out or reach out to us )

Our tip for making the most of your yarn

Start with one skein, taking one strand from the centre and one from the outside, and hold these together as you knit. Work the increasing section with this first skein. When it is used up, join the second skein in the same way and begin the decreasing section.

This helps you make the most of both skeins with minimal leftovers. Keep a little yarn aside for casting off and weaving in your ends. You can also adjust the size to suit your style, bearing in mind that a larger bandana may require extra yarn.
