Do you have a ton of single fingering weight skeins? Uotani was designed to allow you to use up two coordinating skeins in a visually interesting way! Pictured here in two highly contrasting colors, but it would be equally stunning in low contrast! The lace outer allows for some peek-a-boo color effect, and the smooth stockinette inner is perfect to help you use up a brightly variegated yarn!

Uotani comes in a doubly long length to allow for high accessorizing, but also a super snuggly cowl when doubled up around the neck.

It is also deceptively easy to work! There are two cast on and bind off options, one slightly easier to work at the beginning and the other slightly easier at the end... but the choice is yours! Once cast on, though, it is super easy to work, and the hardest choice will be choosing your colors!
