How to Fold a Naruto Bandana

Naruto is a cartoon (anime) character that, in addition to being a network series, is also printed on bandanas and other marketing materials. Available online and at select retailers, Naruto bandanas are a great addition to any Naruto fan's armory. Like the ninja portrayed by the Naruto character, you can wear your Naruto bandana to demonstrate your mastery and devotion to the series as well as support the art of ninja fighting.

Instructions

1. Place the Naruto bandana on a flat surface. Using the palm of your hand, sweep away any folds or wrinkles.

2. Grab the left corner tip and pull it back toward the right lower tip. Make sure the ends meet perfectly. Now that the ends are together, grab the tip and fold the lower right section toward the center of the triangle. Essentially, you will move back in the same direction you just pulled the single left corner tip, but will not go over the edge of the bandana.

3. Fold over and over, measuring about 1 inch between each fold. This is largely your preference, and one to two single large folds can be used just as well.

4. Continue to fold the bandana in 1- to 2-inch squares, allowing the final square to show the blond-haired Naruto character across your forehead. This step will require some adjustments, as the final fold should show the Naruto character's trademark spiky blond hair. If careful consideration is not given, others will not be able to distinguish it as a Naruto bandana.

5. Opt for a single fold to allow more of the Naruto characteristics and design elements to be visible. Start with a large block (the Naruto bandana should be open and flat on a surface) and fold one side down to create a triangle. Place it on your head and then tie both ends around the back of your head.

Tips & Warnings

• Wash your Naruto bandana frequently to remove dirt, grim, and sweat.

• A wrinkled Naruto bandana may limit the visibility of the characters.
