Warm & Wearable Wool

    Lion Brand Wool Ease Roving Origins is an aran weight, 100% wool yarn that provides warmth with it's drapey fabric. This pattern requires a 100% wool yarn to block to the finished dimensions. If using another fiber, you may have to add more rows to the bandana to reach the intended size.




Nomad Bandana Details:

Finished Measurements: 
30” Wingspan x 16” Width

Materials:
  • Lion Brand Wool Ease Roving Origins - Heather Grey
    • Category 4 - Aran Weight

  • Dc: Double Crochet 
  • BLO: Back Loop Only 
  • Ch: Chain

Notes: 
  • The finished Bandana factors in intentional stretch from blocking. In order to achieve the necessary stretch, a 100% wool yarn is suggested. Any other fiber content/blend may require more rows to achieve the right measurements.

Row 2 (RS): Ch 3, 1 dc in the blo of the first st, * 1 dc in the BLO of the next st, repeat from * until you reach the ch 2 space, (2 dc, 1 tc) in the BLO of the 1st ch, (1 tc, 2 dc) in the BLO of the 2nd ch, 1 dc in the BLO of each st left, 1 dc into both loops of the last st, turn.
