bandana

Square cloth accessory

A bandana is a square piece of cloth, typically cotton with a printed pattern, folded into a triangle and worn around the head or neck.

Cowboys wore them to keep dust out; gang members use colored bandanas to signal affiliation.

The paisley pattern is most traditional: She tied a red bandana around her hair.
