Moxie Bandana Cowl

Have you ever thought, “I could never pull off a bandana cowl. That’s not my style.”? It sounds like you could use a little Moxie! Bandanas are no longer just for bandits and the Wild West. This jaunty little cowl will update your look—and your attitude—with a bit of spunk.

The cowl is knit from the bottom up, worked flat at first, using increases on every other row to create the tapered front. Additional stitches are then cast on and joined to work in the round to form the neck. A few quick calculations and the help of a scale will let you use up as much of that fabulous yarn as possible.

Moxie is easy to slip over your head and walk out the door with confidence. Wear it with the point in front or draped over one shoulder—there’s no wrong way. And the inside of the work is attractive, too, so there’s no need to fuss about it showing. Effortless style with lots of moxie!

Sample used about 324 yd. (296 m)/97 g of Malabrigo Arroyo (sport weight) in the Aniversario colorway.
