Paintbox Cowl is a bandana-style cowl which delivers warmth without bulk and a polished finish that looks great with any outfit. The real fun? Choosing your colors! Go bold, keep it simple, or experiment with leftovers from your stash – anything goes. Inspired by larger triangular shawls, this smaller version is quicker to knit and perfect for layering under coats or over sweaters.

Cowl is knit flat in Stockinette Stitch. Duplicate Stitch embroidery is added after cowl body is finished. Duplicate Stitch step-by-step photos and link to video tutorial are included.
