A perfect project for either knitters or crocheters to use up stash yarns! This is a photo-tutorial for making a cowl, suited to your taste. Either make it snug to the neck or a bit drapey.

Mix and match all kinds of yarns: solids, variegated, textured, sparkly…anything goes. Instructions given for how to combine thinner yarns to make a chunky weight yarn and add interest to your cowl.
