intentionally beat up looking, frayed, aged, distressed & mended I've been making & wearing these since I was a kid.. the more wear they get the getter they look imo I personally use them as small scarves (wrapped or neckerchief way) for when I don't want the bulk of a scarf others wear them as belts, dog bandanas, hat ribbons.. their shape is inexact but loosely resembling a shallow triangle both designs are an aged newsprint pattern with codes and mending.. the flip side is an aged out faint grandma floral accessories are to show uses, the listing is only for the bandanas <3 thank you for looking
