Baby Birdie Bandana Pattern

Baby Birdie Bandana is comprised of 4 mini skeins of Birdie (131 yards / 20g each!) with stripes & marling detail that we know will delight you. As a light-fingering fluff, Birdie when held double creates a feather-light fabric with an incredible squish factor. A perfect mini project for your mini skeins.

PATTERN NOTES
This shawl is worked holding 2 strands of yarn held double at all times. When winding your yarn, be mindful to keep tabs on your end from the center­—and outside—of each cake. You will be holding the same color doubled at some points in the shawl and you’ll want to work from both the inside and the outside. When working a strand of 2 different colors, work from the outside of each cake to help them maintain their shape longer, and stay more tidy.
