Inspired by a cowgirl’s iconic bandana, this easy-to-wear “kerchief cowl” design captures vintage Western flavor, knitted in two vibrant colors of SilverSpun® Silk lace weight yarn for a feather-light, breathable fabric.

The Cimarron Bandana Cowl is knitted in stranded, Fair Isle style colorwork, worked from the bottom up, knitted seamlessly both in the round and flat. Note: this is a charted design.

An eyelet & garter border prevents stockinette roll, forming a neat finished edge.

Skill Level: Intermediate, for stranded colorwork and knitting from chart.
