Bobcat Hills cowl

Discover the stunning Bobcat Hills, a picturesque group of peaks in Southern California, perfect for outdoor adventures and a little inspiration for your next knitting project. Experience comfort and style with your new cowl while enjoying the breathtaking views that these trails have to offer!

This knitting pattern includes detailed instructions for two variations: a shorter cowl designed to sit snugly around your neck and a longer, tube-like cowl that can be worn in multiple ways. The process begins with casting on stitches and joining them to work in the round, allowing for a seamless finish from bottom to top (or top to bottom, depending on your perspective). The shorter cowl features a ribbed edging, creating an elegant touch, while the longer cowl is crafted first and then sewn together at the edges, resulting in a versatile long tube. With the provided yarn amounts, you have the flexibility to create two shorter cowls using contrasting colors or one lengthy cowl to suit your style.

Shorter Cowl Dimensions: 12in/30.5cm (width) x 12in/30.5cm (height)
Longer Cowl Dimensions: 40in/102cm (circumference) x 6.25in/16cm (width)
