[pct-l] Banadanas

[Diane Soini of Santa Barbara Hikes]

The craft store in my town has bandanas. Some are blank, some have  
the traditional pattern. You could get a blank one and some fabric  
paint or markers and do whatever you want. There are also iron-on  
sheets you can put in your printer if you want to create some artwork  
on your computer. Otherwise, traditional bandanas are not that  
terribly hard to find in dollar stores.
