Peaky is a fun, simple colorwork cowl that beginner knitters will find approachable and seasoned knitters will find readable and memorizable. Inspired by my Palm Springs cowl, plain rounds every other round help this project fly by. Peaky is fun to knit and a really great gift knit for the knitworthy folks in your life! One of my favorite things about this pattern is that with two skeins of DK yarn you can make two cowls if you invert the colors! I love using up leftovers and what’s better than making another cowl to give or keep? Impress everyone with a cowl that’s easier than it looks!
This colorwork cowl is knit seamlessly in the round. Two DK skeins with 231+ yards each are enough to make two cowls if you invert the colors (like I did!). For your convenience, two versions of the chart are provided - use the version that matches your chosen colors, but note that the same chart is used throughout the pattern.
