It is necessary
- - a piece of cloth;
- - threads;
- - a needle;
- - hook;

Instructions
Step 1
First you need to choose the material from which you will make the bandana. Almost anyone will do. The main thing is that the texture and color of the fabric suit you. Try to pick up a larger piece. Its dimensions must be at least 60 square centimeters. Give the fabric a square shape, the sizes can be arbitrary, but do not make a bandana too small, otherwise it will be inconvenient to wear.
Step 2
Now you need to start processing the edges of the future bandana. To do this, simply fold the edges twice. It is convenient to first sew them with a large seam forward with a needle, and then sew on a typewriter. If this is not possible, then you can hem the edges of the bandana with a blind seam. If the fabric you have chosen is loose enough and the interlacing of the threads is clearly visible, then you can process the edge with a thin hook, this is very original. Take threads that match the color and texture and tie the edges of the bandana with single crochets. You can, of course, knit some cute frill, but usually such delights are not used in bandanas.
Step 3
After you've finished the edges, you can try on the bandana. Although, if during the manufacture of the bandana your imagination was played out as a joke, then you should start decorating the product. If your bandana is monochromatic, then it is easy to make an applique from pieces of fabric or embroidery on it. Bandanas with colored abstractions made using fabric paints look very interesting. You can simply spray paint or use, for example, a sponge to apply various strokes.
Step 4
Bandanas, painted using the batik technique, look simply gorgeous. If you are planning to try yourself in the role of an artist, it is better to make sure in advance that your bandana is made of silk. In addition, you need to have certain skills and knowledge in order to work in the batik technique. Choose the option you like and purchase the necessary materials.
