This one is for all the moms out there! Whether you’re 25 or 45, this scarf is functional and fashionable! Never worry about your scarf falling off when chasing your little ones around. Nanay, by the way, means “mother” in Tagalog, a Filipino dialect and my mom’s native tongue.

This pattern features the double moss stitch, creating a textural landscape of diagonal columns. You will learn how to cast off mid-row, creating a slit for you to tuck the scarf in. Why, you might ask? So it never falls off! Look ma, no hands!
