The Chromatical Wrap takes a classic chevron stitch and adds a whole lot of color. Edition 3 is a self-striping yarn with dozens of color changes in every skein. By using five different skeins, you’re guaranteed constantly changing color. The wrap is ridiculously fun to knit, and it goes with everything. You’ll want to block Chromatical aggressively to achieve the dimensions and reveal the stitch pattern.

I designed Chromatical as a scarf many years ago, and as a novice designer at the time I didn’t pay much attention to things like yarn usage (and the scarf was quite narrow). The Chromatical Wrap uses all its yarn and is generously wide.
