This cowl-dana is made using five 20g mini skeins, allowing you to grab scrap yarn or those awesome mini skein bundles from your favorite indie dyer! You can also use one skein of fingering weight held double OR DK weight!

Lots of possibility and with this fun, expanding texture pattern made of tucked stitches and a little bit of short row magic to make the chevron whirl throughout the piece. A quick knit and one that you knit flat before a quick seam and BAM! A fun new kerchief for all seasons/wardrobes!
