Marled Stripes

Marled Stripes is my new bandana pattern that brings together two of my favorite techniques: marling and striping. Knit in two strands of lace-weight yarn, this bandana is a quick and fun knit! Marled Stripes is a great beginner-friendly pattern. You will need one skein of the main color, and 5 minis for the contrast colors. There are a lot of ways to make this design your own, starting with your color choice. You can take things a step further by incorporating color blocking or intarsia, changing the placement of the reverse stockinette, and playing with the size. I look forward to seeing how you customize your Marled Stripes! **** Finished Size: mine was 43.25”/110cm x 15.25”/39cm Yarn: 650 meters of lace-weight (held double throughout) Suggested Yarn: MC: 1 - 100 g skein of La Bien Aimée Felix CCs: 5 - 25 g skeins of La Bien Aimée Felix Sample 1: Original Light palette La Bien Aimée Felix MC: 100 g Avoine CC1: 25 g LBA Yellow CC2: 25 g Fluoro Morganite CC3: 25 g “HELLA” CC4: 25 g “AS IF” CC5: 25 g Anemone Sample 2: Original Dark palette La Bien Aimée Felix MC: 100 g Noir CC1: 25 g “HELLA” CC2: 25 g Fluoro Morganite CC3: 25 g Anemone CC4: 25 g LBA Yellow CC5: 25 g “AS IF” Sample 3: Lolita palette La Bien Aimée Felix MC: 100 g Sansa CC1: 25 g Kokko CC2: 25 g Dawn CC3: 25 g Bleu Royal CC4: 25 g Anemone CC5: 25 g “HELLA” Sample 4: mYak palette mYak Baby Yak Lace MC: 2x Shine CC1: 1x Sweet Kiss CC2: 1x Dusty Pink CC3: 1x Pink Pearl CC4: 1x Malva CC5: 1x Flamingo Needles: 3.75mm, 60-80cm cable Notions: stitch marker Gauge: Worked in stockinette stitch using 3.75mm needles: 21 sts x 31 rows = 10cm (washed & laying flat).
