Crochet Bandana Pattern – Lizzy’s Bandana

This crochet triangle bandana pattern alternates solid rows with mesh rows for an airy look, which is accentuated by the watercolor look of the yarn shading from one color family to the next.

Make any size bandana you like – or buy plenty of yarn, keep crocheting, and you will wind up with a shawl!
