Banana Leaf Bandana

Is it a bandana? Is is a scarf? A shawlette? I’m not sure, but it was inspired by the always magnificent banana leaf! Provided banana plants get enough light, they make for incredible indoor allies. Having a collection of several, I knew there was only one leaf that I would want to duplicate. This 1 Skein pattern uses a simple Assigned Pooling technique and a slightly larger hook than is recommended with the sample colourway, which creates a quick and easy make. Beginner friendly and easy to pick up, this simple pattern is a must have.

While originally created for the Houseplant HortOCCULTure colourway, this pattern would look great with any colourway from Arcane Fibre Works, such as Enchanted Nightshade or Twilights Glow.About the Designer and Collaboration
