Dot's Kerchief
This kerchief was designed with my sweet Grandmother, Dorothy, in mind. Using a fingering weight yarn this is the perfect lightweight accessory for when you just want a bit of something around your neck without all the bulk of a more traditional cowl or scarf.
Notes
The first half of this piece is worked in the round and then it is worked flat to give it the kerchief point in the front.
