This chunky cowl is a great stash busting project! Use those random gorgeous single skeins that you’re never quite sure what to do with. For a funky look, dive into your scraps to mix and match yarns and colors. The possibilities are endless.

For even more fun, hold 3 or more strands of lighter weight yarn together and whip one out in just a couple hours. The thick and chunky stitch provides optimal warmth and structure, so this cowl isn’t going to flop around and lay limp on your collar bone. It works up quickly with a big hook and is a satisfying palette cleanser between those larger projects.
