Daunt

Whether you fell victim to that gorgeous set of mini-skeins or are wondering what to do with your leftovers, the Daunt cowl solves your problem and helps you not just use up, but showcase those bits and bobs. With detailed directions on how to wind your yarn so that you can cruise through the project, Daunt is perfect for mindless or travel knitting! Clear tutorial videos walk you through key techniques for this cowl: the crochet provisional cast-on and tying a magic knot. Finishing is a breeze with only two ends to weave in.

Specific yarns are not listed because of the high flexibility of this pattern. The sample was knit with one set of 24 mini-skeins and a full 100-g skein of a contrast (neutral) color. You can use mini skeins or leftover bits of yarn - the pattern will instruct you how to prepare and knit whatever you have so that your cowl will be a success, no matter what.
