Nissa
A pretty kerchief knitted in mostly Stockinette stitch with a sleek two color Garter stitch linear interest. The marled stripes make for a pretty sharp look and the yarn makes this triangle feel super comfortable.

It’s pretty big for a kerchief, the blocked size: 36” by 29.5” by 4”. Can easily be made larger, with more yarn needed.

The pattern is written and has been test knitted. A big thanks to all the Test Knitters!
