Peaks is a fun and quick cowl to knit designed with softened chevrons for a sophisticated elegance to the angles of the flowing colours.

Designed to taper up to the neckline for a classic and elegant fit.

Best part? It only takes one ball of this amazing yarn from Hayfield. (The yarn only looks and feels expensive) I like that part too! Check your gauge so that you are sure to have enough yarn.

Simple enough for beginners and interesting enough for more advanced knitters.
