Bandana Hat with Neck Covering

This pattern is for a quick-to-work bandana. It is worked from the crown, in one piece with no seaming and has a shaped neck-flap to protect sensitive skin from the sun.

Sizes baby to adult included.

BONUS skull and crossbones appliqué also included for download.

The recommended yarn is double knit (8-ply) cotton mixes but other yarns may be used to give different textures (less than 300 m for largest size).

Colour changes are optional.
You will also need a 3.50 mm hook (or appropriate size for yarn chosen) and a needle for neatening ends.
