Hannah Bandanna

This sassy, little bandanna has a boho vibe when you tie it in back, and a 1950s retro look when you tie it under your chin. Best of all, you can use any yarn -- from lightweight to super bulky.  The pattern is especially fun to crochet in a self-striping yarn.

The kerchief is one size for teens and adults, with a finished measurement of 9½ to 10 in./24 to 25.5 cm from center of band to tip of triangle, or desired depth.

The pattern provides written instructions and uses U.S. crochet terms.

Here are approximate yarn amounts:

Sock yarn: 133 yd./122 m

Worsted: 105 yd./96 m
