Maximo looking dapper in the 

new Beaded Bandanna

Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach of

 Posh Pooch Designs

I have been wanting to design a Beaded Bandanna

 crochet pattern for a while.

I picked it up a few time, but would set it down.

I was looking through some of my left

 over yarns in my yarn ball basket.

I can across This yarn, saw the Sparkle and thought,

"this is the perfect yarn for this project".

I believe the yarn  is Simply Soft Party ,

although I no longer have the wrapper.
