Le Bandana - Patchwork by Aimée Gille

Patchwork by Aimée Gille

A bandana full of memory, color, and joy

Patchwork is a heartfelt new design by Aimée Gille, inspired by the handmade stories woven through family and yarn. This striking shawl, inspired by Aimée's original bandana, is a wearable celebration of memory—echoing the patchwork blanket Aimée’s mother knit for her sister, where every square told its own story.

Designed to make the most of your leftover yarn—minis, scraps, or those special bits you’ve saved—Patchwork transforms them into a bold and modern intarsia motif. The result is playful, graphic, and rich with meaning. Whether you knit it in your own colors or follow Aimée’s palette, this project is full of creative freedom and personal flair.

Wrap yourself in a little patchwork joy.
