Wear this simple triangle draped around your neck for a bit of warmth and a lot of style. Two points are knit separately, and then joined together with a mitered square to the center point. Hand-dyed sock yarn, in one or two colors, will be set off nicely by the simple stockinette stitch.

Finished size:
58 inches long, 17.5 inches deep at center

Materials:
400 yards of fingering weight yarn
NOTE: Your yarn may be divided in half between two colors. In the sample, two different hanks of the same colorway were used, giving a subtle contrast in the mitered square due to the natural variation of the hand-dyed yarn.
