I’ve been thinking about crocheting myself a cowl for the past couple of weeks. I started swatching today and came up with this.
It’s a really simple one row lace pattern. I have written the pattern up for several different yarn weights (see here or link in side bar). Please bear in mind that this pattern has not been tested (except by me!). I think it would be nice in a subtley variagated sock weight yarn (e.g. malabrigo sock).
Very nice and simple pattern. It’s very pretty. Thank you.
That yarn is YUMMY! I hope to try your pattern soon!!
This is so pretty! I’ll be linking.
This collar is yummy and easy, but that photo…just doesn’t do it justice.
Dreadful photo….can’t see cowl at all…brown on brown wasn’t a good idea at all.
Hi Miriam – I agree it isn’t a good photo – I found it difficult to take a good photo of me wearing it. I hope you enjoy the free pattern though. There is a slightly better photo of the finished cowl on the pdf.
The cowl is actually dark grey in real life – nothing like my skin colour (it’s the same yarn as I used for the Charcoal Wallaby sweater ), and it looks dark grey on my monitor. You might want to check your monitor settings.
Very pretty. I hope you don’t mind me making this for Christmas gifts.
I absolutely love this pattern! This was one of my first projects using a pattern–it was so very easy and turned out beautifully. Thank you for sharing this!
Nice Pattern – and pretty cowl! This is a great stitch to use for a cowl.
