My first official summer accessory pattern of the year is here! Meet the Lace Bandana — a summery mesh design that is the perfect addition to any warm-weather outfit.

This pattern, followed exactly, will result in a slightly asymmetrical, triangle mesh bandana.

I rediscovered bandanas this year when looking for an alternative to tying my hair up. I hate having my hair in my face, but sometimes I’m not in the mood for a ponytail, or my buns aren’t turning out in that perfect-messy-bun way. Bandanas are the perfect solution! I get to keep my hair down and relaxed but still prevent any bothersome strands from getting in the way.
This pattern is the PERFECT first lace project for a beginner knitter. Using only yarn over and knit-2-togethers, you will be astounded at how a beautiful pattern such as this can create such a versatile and unique looking fabric. Plus, the mesh aspect of this pattern makes it SO QUICK to whip up. I made mine in a matter of days — in total, probably only a few hours!
