Bandanna! Bandanna! Bandanna!




I created these for Bandanna day (just past)

I used cotton drill, although you could as easily use Bleached Calico.

Cut roughly into 40cm x 40cm squares
Then use cotton tips and water mixed with edicol or food colouring.
Dip your tips into the mixtures and create away!!!!
Dry and then it is ready to wear.
By iroing after it has dryed should partially set the colour in the bandanna.

Tip: 3 metres makes about 24 bandannas.

Tip: There may be left over strips of material, these make great wrist or head bands.

Tip: The more edicol dye you use the darker the colour, it is recommended that you use about a teaspoon for each colour.
