”From the Land” range - Watermelon Bandana
I’m so excited to introduce this bandana design featuring some iconic patterns from the Palestinian keffiyeh, such as the wavy lines which represent the olive leaves and branches, and the diamond criss-cross pattern which is actually a fishnet, and represents Palestinian roots, and connection to the land and sea.
The Palestinian keffiyeh is a deeply meaningful and symbolic part of the culture. It is not just a piece of clothing, it signifies the connection that the Palestinians have to their land. Each symbol in the keffiyeh is purposeful, to reflect how they are rooted in the land, the sea, the olive groves, and the communities that have called Palestine home for generations.
I wanted to add a playful element to the bandanas by incorporating a watermelon pattern, which has become a well recognised symbols of Palestinian heritage and resistance.
The design is part of a fundraising campaign for a 6 year old orphaned girl, whose immediate family were all killed in 2023 and 2024. Proceeds will be donated to assist with food, aid, medicine or other basic living essentials.
The bandanas pair beautifully with most of my children’s and adults clothing ranges, and they are also great for pets!
