Knitted bandana hat

A fashionable accessory that every girl, girl, lady definitely has. This is the same bandana, it's so cute that they write poems about it: “I’ll tie a banana... Contrary to the signs...”

How rich the history is is simply unreal. It won’t be possible to tell everything right now, and the reader will get tired of listening. Just look at the photo and we’ll immediately understand everything, because it reflects the history of the bandana well:

• The first story is about pirates, they wore bandanas on their heads. Everyone immediately remembered cartoons and films about pirates.
• The second and third are robbers and robbers. At some time, scarves were designated as part of criminal ammunition.

Further, it is a scarf for protection from dust, and in fact, bandana is translated from Hindi as “to tie.” Most real cowboys wore scarves this way. The latter is more of a modern model, elegantly tied around the neck as a fashion accessory.

Let's look at the original, coolest knitted bandanas for women that knitting needles can create.

Yarn and knitting needles

Yarn for a bandana can be very different.If you want summer models, buy something made of cotton threads; silk ones are also suitable, they practically do not heat, but, on the contrary, they often give off a chilly feeling. But for cold weather, you can examine a thread that is thicker and warmer; it should have a wool composition of 50% or more. This unusual women's scarf hat will make every girl stand out.

We select the knitting needles last and pay attention to the size that will complement the selected skeins of yarn. The skeins often have a little advice on the right size knitting needles and hook.

Sample

For a bandana, you first need to knit a small piece with knitting needles and calculate the density. Density is how many elements are contained in 10 cm vertically and horizontally.

Next, match the loops and calculate for the desired size.

The bandana itself has the shape of a triangle and can be of different sizes, the main thing is that it is enough to tie it. For models on the head, you need to measure the circumference of the head and add 10-20 cm to the knots. For the neck, it’s the same, only for the winter model, add extras to the outerwear.

Creative bandana patterns

Garter stitch bandana with bow

Oh, what, it’s about both the model and the decoration. You should definitely try to do this. Well, it’s worth praising this product strongly, everything is clear - it’s just a masterpiece. It’s easy to knit and there is no barrier to doing it even for a beginner.

To work you will need:

• pekhorka yarn 200-250 g;
• knitting needles number 2.5.

For a bandana, two things you need to know are the garter stitch pattern and the increase. All this is elementary. Cast on 4 stitches with knitting needles and knit in garter stitch. Add one loop on each row from one edge. Do this not using yarn overs, but by tying the thread between the loops. So the increase will be invisible. Knit to the middle.The master himself will decide where the middle will be and when to stop.

Important! The middle of the bandana triangle is its even half. Therefore, make additions up to 1/2 of the desired length.

The half is connected and now from the side where the additions were made, make symmetrical decreases. To make it beautiful, it is better to knit the first two stitches of the row of this side together in knit stitch and then in garter stitch. When 4 loops remain, close off and finish knitting.

It is proposed to decorate the model with an elegant bow; without it, the model will not look so fabulous.

Important! For those who do not like the edges of the product, along which the loops will be visible, you can make not a triangular product, but a square canvas. Fold in half and sew seams. Turn inside out and finish with a hidden seam.

If desired, you can decorate it not with a bow, but with more youthful emblems.

Soft mohair bandana

This charming scarf is for sophisticated natures. For those who love gentle things, a gentle touch. Mohair will do a great job with this. An entertaining model with a discreet border.

To work you will need:

• kid mohair yarn;
• knitting needles number 2.

The yarn is very thin and needs to be knitted very carefully. You shouldn’t be surprised that there will be holes in the fiber, because this mohair is very airy. The product is knitted from corner to corner. It is based on a stockinette stitch pattern. The result will be a very thin and neat weave.

We first knitted a mohair sample and determined how many cm of length it needed, and how many loops it should have. It is important to determine how many rows are required.

We picked up 3 stitches with knitting needles and started straight away with the fabric pattern. Make increments on one side through a row of one loop at a time. When the bandana becomes 1/2 of the required length, continue knitting with decreases. Do the same as additions, on the same side.

After 3 loops remain, close carefully according to the pattern of the fabric.

All that remains is to make the border. For this you need a hook, it is better to knit size 1.75. Along the edge of the scarf, first knit single crochets, without stretching the fabric too much or relaxing it too much. There is no need to create waves or folds.

Then lift three loops and knit by analogy. Two double crochets in each previous stitch, 3 ch and two double crochets again (pass three loops of the previous row between the stitches). Continue like this along the edge of the entire product. The result is not too overloaded, but an even and laconic crochet border.
