The Brioche Intarsia Bandana is a small, triangular scarf knitted in brioche, in combination with the intarsia technique to create abstract, graphic shapes.
The bandana is knitted from point to point and shaped along the right side only. First, you increase and then decrease every 8th brioche knit row.

To maintain the reversible character of brioche, even when combining it with the intarsia technique, the pattern includes some tips and tricks to make the wrong side almost as visually neat and tidy as the right side.

SPECIAL TECHNIQUES
The pattern features step-by-step instructions to make the combination of brioche and intarsia as neat and reversible as possible.
