The ties are not intended to be long, but just long enough to tie, 
So the ties do not hang to far down and

Continue to repeat R : 14 and R : 15, 
Stitching 2 dec every other row, till there is only 2 sts on the needle.
BO and weave in your ends. 

2 Trim options: Both work great with similar results.
Trim- With the Crochet Hook, and the fuzzy yarn,
sc across the edge of the Bandanna.
Or
Thread the Fuzzy yarn in your yarn needle,
And Whip stitch the fuzzy yarn across the edge of the bandanna.


Buckle – Lay buckle on the center of the black stripe.
Sew in place with matching thread and yarn needle.
