Materials Needed:
- Medium yarn (number 4)
- 5 mm crochet hook
Pattern Instructions:
Starting the Cowl:
- Make a slip knot to begin.
- Chain 84 stitches. The length of the chain should be around 24 inches.
- Join to the first chain with a slip stitch to make a circle. Be careful to ensure that your chain is not twisted.
Row 1:
- Chain 3. This counts as your first double crochet.
- Turn the chain to the other side and find the loop located between the stitches.
- Double crochet in this back loop of the next chain.
- Continue to double crochet in the back loop of each chain around.
- Once you complete the row, slip stitch to the top of the initial chain 3 to join.
Subsequent Rows:
- Slip stitch in the first stitch to start the new row.
- Chain 3 (counts as the first double crochet).
- Double crochet in each stitch around, ensuring you are working in both loops now for a more polished finish on both sides.
- Finish the row by slip stitching to the top of the beginning chain 3.
Repeating the Pattern:
- At the start of each new row, remember to turn your work to maintain the pattern correctly.
- Chain 3 (or as required by your row’s starting stitch) and continue with the double crochets as before.
- Repeat this pattern until your cowl reaches the desired height. The tutorial suggests crocheting until the work is about 12 inches for a standard size cowl or longer if you prefer it to be able to cover your head.
Finishing Off:
- Once you have reached your desired number of rows (the example provided mentions 24 rows in total), finish off by cutting the yarn, leaving a tail for weaving in.
- Use a yarn needle to weave in all loose ends for a neat finish.
Final Thoughts:
- The tutorial emphasizes the ease of customization by selecting different yarns or adjusting the cowl’s size to fit as desired.
- End with a reminder for careful craftsmanship to ensure there are no twists in the work, which could affect the final product's fit and appearance.
Completion:
- Hide any remaining yarn strings to clean up your work, and your cowl is complete.
