Tri-Shell Hair Kerchief -free crochet pattern-


I designed this crochet hair kerchief around the same time that I wrote up the pattern for Pineapple Head Hair Kerchief.  This pattern loosely follows the same crochet method as the granny square, however the shells are worked into the previous shells instead of the spaces between, and it is, of course, a triangle!  This is a fun,easy, and gratifying pattern, as it works up quick!
