Crossing Over Cowl
Disclaimer: This Post Contains Affiliate Links.
Here is the crossing over cowl to match last week’s beanie pattern. The cowl can be crocheted to any length by increasing the starting chains in multiples of 6.
You can use any type of yarn that you want. One of my testers used Caron Simply Soft, and the texture turned out really nice. However, I also love the drape you get with the ‘Woolike’ from Loops & Threads. So the choice is up to you.
Skill Level: Easy
Materials:
Yarn: Woolike Yarn by Loops & Threads
, (affiliate link) or any super fine (1) yarn.
Crochet Hook: G 4.0mm
Gauge: 2″ over 9 sts, gauge is not that important, however.
Finished Size: When laying flat it measures 21″ long and 4.5″ high. Can be crocheted to any size, however.

That is a very pretty pattern. Thanks for sharing it. I am pinning to my crochet board. Best wishes, Darlene
I love the look of this pattern. I was wondering if I could make it with rows and not in a circle. I would sew the two ends together once it is the width that I wanted.
Yes, I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. :) That’s a great idea… and that way you could do an infinity scarf that drapes even better. :)
Thank you for your response. I am going to make this as a gift for a good friend.
Great pattern! love the stitches, the flexibility, the color you used and the fact it’s free! :)
Gorgeous! Just gorgeous.
