Ch - Chain

Slst - Slip Stitch

BLO - Back loops only

FLO - Front loops only

Ch - Chain

Slst - Slip Stitch

FO - Fasten Off (Slip stitch in the next stitch, Ch 1, and pull and cut the yarn.

Cowboy Hat:

The project is started by chaining twice and then single crocheting six times into the first chain.

If you prefer, you can use a magic circle instead.

[crochet words]x6 - brackets indicate that something is repeated multiple times in one round. The number outside of the brackets tells you how many times it should be repeated.

(##) - Numbers inside parentheses at the end of a round tells you the stitch count of that round.

If there is no stitch count after a round, then the stitch count is the same as the last round.

The BLO can be replaced with Back Post single crocheting, if you know how to do that.

Bandana:

The bandana uses the Corner to Corner stitch (C2C). If you already know how to C2C, great! If not, the process will be shown in the instructions.

You are done with C2C! Now, Sc around two sides (bottom corner of the bandana), and then Ch 21 and Slst in each Ch to make one of the ties.
