Dancing Stripes Cowl is a fun design that uses at least two different colorways of DK weight yarn. Only about 160 yards are needed of each yarn for a two-color version, but it can be made with more colors, so it is a great stash-busting project.

The cowl is worked in the round. It uses stripes of different colors plus simple decreases and yarn overs in different positions to create a zig-zagging effect for the stripes.
