  • Hello! Thank you so much for clicking on my video!
    This is my first tutorial so filming and editing may be a little rough, but I’ll get the hang of it eventually.
    This tutorial is nothing incredibly new, however, I wanted to share my take on the classic crochet bandana that is made in a way that helps minimize the extra bulk that you may have on the sides of your bandana when you wear it.
    💚 Please give me a follow on Instagram: dorothyjeancrochet
    📧 Email me with any questions you may have about the pattern, and I will be happy to respond!
    dorothyjeancrochet@gmail.com.
    Thanks again for watching, and happy making. ❤️🧶

    This is almost exactly what I needed! There’s nothing out there like it. Now if you could show me how to crochet it with shaping, as if you would then stitch the “notches” closed. That’s exactly what I need. A crochet bandana/kerchief with side shaping, something like the crochet masks.

    HI Great job on this tutorial. So far so good, if you decided to add a scalloped edge, could you just add it to the built up edge only? Also, when you wear it do you kind of fold the corners of the built up part under?- Thanks

    Just an aside - stylecraft special dk acrylic yarn gets SUPER drapey if you wash and dry it in machines. I always do hand wash cycle or cold, and then only dry it long enough for it to be completely dry. Super, super soft though.

    Ali, you have done a fabulous job with the tutorial. I had downloaded a bandana pattern from Berroco: BULSARA; followed it until I began with the extensions. (Very similar to yours, except it does not have the extension !). I used Lion brand cotton-fetti blend - very splitty, but manageable. Hook G, could not find my H hook😮. Worked just as well.
    Thanks

    Hello, I'm a beginner so I'm still learning about yarns.. Right now I have a cotton yarn, probably in weight 1 or 2 and instructions recommend to use size 2,25-2,5 hook. I also have yarns in weight 4-5 but they are wool so I believe it would be very hot for summer... Can I make this headband with the cotton yard I have? Thank you so much

    @jamieblack6090 3 месяца назад +1

    Halp I'm 14 rows in making this but with worsted weight and a 4 hook, its bulky already before fitting my head around or having even started the second portion. Any suggestions for me?

    • @ali-djcrochet
      @ali-djcrochet  3 месяца назад +2

      I think the worsted weight is going to be too bulky! However, the ends of the first part of the triangle don't have to touch under your head. You can frog your rows until it doesn't look bulky anymore, then start the second part of the triangle. Your ties will just start at your ears instead.

    • @jamieblack6090
      @jamieblack6090 3 месяца назад

    • @RachelBarker444
      @RachelBarker444 3 месяца назад

      The "straight edge" of my bandanna is curving. The edge that goes from ear to ear in the front. I think its the last double crochet in the row. I'm going to try putting it in the top of the chain 4 instead of in the chain one space. Otherwise its coming out pretty cute.

  • @Subtle_Creation
    @Subtle_Creation Год назад

    Great tutorial! Like you, I also have fine/thin hair and have struggled with making the “perfect” bandana for myself. Definitely giving this a try. I do have one question though...if I wanted to use a size 1 yarn (I thought a finer yarn might work better and not be weighted/bulky) what hook size would you recommend and should I double strand?

    • @ali-djcrochet
      @ali-djcrochet  Год назад

      Hey there! so confession - I have never worked with a weight 1 yarn! Lol So tbh I am not sure. If I did, I think I would double it and use a size 3.5 hook or maybe 3.

    • @ali-djcrochet
      @ali-djcrochet  9 месяцев назад +1

      I am so sorry it did not work out! Could be a few things, hook size, yarn type, etc. Try again and perhaps don't make the base go all the way around your head. Instead stop it behind your ears and make the ties longer. Also make the lengthened part a bit shorter.
