How to Crochet the Picot Bandana
This design is worked in alternating rows of picots and single crochets creating an interesting yet relatively simple project suitable for advanced beginners and intermediates.
To create your bandana, follow the pattern’s row-repeat until you reach the desired size. You can also customize the length of the ties to ensure a comfortable fit for any head circumference.

Different Bandana Sizes
The Picot Bandana pattern provides four kerchief sizes. The small size is ideal for babies and toddlers, while the medium works better for children and teenagers. Most adults choose the large size since it covers both the front and back at the top of their head plus comfortably fits around the ears.
If you’re not sure about your size, just go with the medium size, which fits most head shapes and sizes.
