Design and Construction

This cowl features a chunky ribbed texture achieved through half double crochet stitches worked in the back loop only, creating a warm and stretchy fabric. The reversible design ensures that both sides look identical, allowing for versatile styling—whether folded over or worn at full height to cover the chin on particularly chilly days.

Sizing

The finished cowl measures approximately 10 inches in width and 7 inches in height (25.5 cm x 17.8 cm), providing ample coverage for the neck area. The stretchy nature of the ribbed pattern allows it to comfortably fit most adults.

Materials and Yarn

The pattern recommends using super bulky weight yarn (category #5 or #6) in acrylic, wool, or a blend, requiring approximately 85 to 94 yards (78 to 86 meters). This choice of yarn ensures the cowl is both warm and quick to work up.

A US size M (9.0 mm) crochet hook is suggested to achieve the appropriate gauge of 5 stitches and 3 rows per 2 inches.

Yarn needle, stitch marker, and scissors are needed for finishing touches.

Skill Level and Techniques

This pattern is classified as easy, making it accessible for beginners who are comfortable with basic crochet stitches. The primary techniques involved include:

  • Half double crochet (hdc)
  • Working in the back loop only (BLO)
  • Seaming the ends together to form the cowl

The straightforward construction allows for a quick project, ideal for those looking to create a handmade gift or a personal accessory in a short amount of time.
