Modern Crochet Turban
This pattern is a modern redo of a vintage pattern. I have included my own written instructions for making this turban using modern worsted weight yarn suitable for beginner to advanced crocheters. These directions are easily adapted to other yarn sizes and stitch patterns for the more accomplished crocheter. I have also added two color photographs of the turbans I have made using this method. I have also scanned the original pages of this vintage pattern and cleaned and arranged them to fit on two letter size sheets of paper.

I find that one skein of worsted yarn such as Lion Brand Wool ease will make one hat. Optional quantities may be needed for stripes or alternate stitch patterns.
