Clarified how to do the edging on the project post on my blog.

This is a crochet pattern for a very cute hair kerchief. It’s done in a simple half-granny motif with decorative edging.

Gauge is not important: You can make this kerchief with almost any yarn. Use the recommended hook for the yarn you choose or, for a lacier kerchief, go up one hook size.

While I include a method for adding straps, feel free to add them whichever way is more comfortable for you. One of my testers even sewed the kerchief to a headband. Have fun with it.

If you have any problems or need some assistance, feel free to comment on the blog post or drop me a message here on Ravelry.
