Default Dude Rags are my latest project.

When my husband went to Sturgis, they rode thru some states without helmets and off blew his dude rag twice. I am not crazy about him riding without a helmet anyway, but then he lost two dude rags...uh! I told him that he can't afford to loose brain cells on the pavement.

Love them! The embroidery makes that one really special. I got a pattern off the internet and made these for my grandsons. They are usually pirates with them, but can be about anything ... knights with do-rags? Sure!

I found several tutes on the internet, but this is the one I used:

I'm with you. I wish my hubby would wear a helmet. He doesn't have anything as cool as these.

Love, love, love the Dude Rags!

Were you able to download an accurate template or did you draft it yourself? I can't seem to print it out at the right side.

Great Dude rags! I guess you are going to have to learn how to sew them out of Kevlar.
