Vafler is a sassy little bandana that you can jauntily tie around your neck, knot it around a bag handle, or just use to accessorize anything that could use a little fun! Using lightweight yarn held double and textured stitches throughout, it’s a quick piece that you can use to show off any bright and special skeins.

This design was made in collaboration with madelinetosh for their MT Designer Studio.
