Camino Peak cowl - PDF Knitting Pattern

Camino Peak is a big cozy bandana cowl knit in two lofty yarns. As you work from the top down, little flecks of color-changing yarn grow to become bubbles, and then blocks, and finally you’ll finish off with a simple stripe.

Slipped stitches are used to create the colorwork designs, and the changing colors and patterns will keep your interest. Cast on and soon you’ll be on your way!

This bandana cowl is worked from the top down, beginning with a triangle worked flat, then joined to work in the round.
