Pirate Kerchieves

These are the kerchieves for two pirates. They are right triangles, the catheti of about 80 cm. Edges were double folded and sewn. Steam iron helped me to get rid of wavy seams that occured mostly at the hypothenuse. Water's always good when fibre stretches :)

They're quite big, but it shouldn't matter. I wanted a black and orange one, I didn't manage to get orange canvas so I'll try to dye it with yellow color and see what will happen. I heard it shouln't work well as it's dyeing to a lighter color, but smeg knows.. :-)
