Let’s get granny with it! We’re kicking off our first Crochet Along (CAL) with Salena Baca’s Granny Stitch Triangle Bandana—a flexible, beginner-friendly pattern that’s as soothing to make as it is stylish to wear.
This classic bandana is worked in one piece from the center out, using easy rows of granny stitch—no shaping, no sewing, just pure crochet joy. It’s a measure-as-you-go design, so you can make it exactly the size you need using any yarn and hook you like.
Whether you’re crafting a cotton version for summer or a cozy wool one for winter, this project adapts to whatever you’ve got in your stash.
