Liner Notes 2
Liner Notes 3! A simple multifunction project (headband? neckwarmer? yes to both) with a straightforward construction designed for vertical stripes and colorblocks. As a project, it’s also a good stashbuster; as a finished piece, it’s functional enough that the sample will probably go into the mitten basket by the door.

As functional cold-weather knitwear goes, the thing you can wear as a close-fitting cowl or as an ear-warmer is kind of ideal. You can pull it up or down depending on where you need it, and negative ease makes everything warmer.

(Be sure to use soft yarn, though. The fitted nature of this accessory makes an-almost-soft-enough-but-kind-of-scratchy yarn somewhat ill-advised.)
