As the title suggests, this cowl is very simple to crochet up. If you know how to make chains, single crochets, and change colors, then you can crochet this!

And best of all, it has a lovely stitch that you’ll want to wear with all your outfits. So why not crochet up a few in different colors to match your entire spring or fall wardrobe.

It also has a lovely drape even though I used a cheap yarn. I simply chose a larger hook than what was recommended by the yarn company.

Another beauty is that it can be crocheted to any size you want. Thus, if you live in cold winter climates, you could also crochet this for a nice cozy winter cowl.
