When the leaves start changing, I start pulling the pile of scarves out of my closet. I'm a scarf girl. I always have one with me, whether it's a shawl or triangle scarf, or a cowl. In my opinion, you can never have too many crochet neckwear accessories. They go with everything and make great gifts and are truly fantastic all year round. Even the summertime gets a little chilly in the evening.
The most recent addition to my collection is the Modern Crochet Cowl. The colors are what really sets it apart from my other scarves.
It’s completed in a mix of blues and blue greens. The Plymouth Hot Cake yarn offers 6 colors in one and it’s all machine washable. It’s a big design without having to weave in all the ends and shift colors.
The colors in this crochet cowl pattern make it really stand out, as does the unique back loop only stitch. The whole crochet scarf is worked in this simple yet decorative stitch, so it’s a quick project.
This is a great pattern for anyone who's learning how to crochet. If you're just starting out or looking to polish and perfect your crochet skills, I highly recommend the professionally filmed and taught Crochet Fundamentals class.
