Dog Flag Bandanna
Crochet Pattern By

 Posh Pooch Designs
I realized I haven't designed anything new

 for the pooches in a couple of weeks,

 so I decided to make them a new bandanna.

This bandanna can be made to look 

Patriotic like the flag 

or it can be made in any 

cotton or acrylic yarn colors you have.

Rosie's is made From Bernat cotton, 

Sweet Treat and Pink. 

 Maximo's is made from 

Martha Stewart Cotton yarn.

Red, White and Blue.

The Pattern is really simple and 

can be made 3 sizes, 

Small, Medium and Large

We have made a video for  you.

A Bandanna is a great way to dress up

 your pooch in the summer, 

with out a hot sweater.

All These pooches need, 

are little drinks with umbrellas in them.

yes, They are very spoiled, 

but I am okay with that.
