Single and Double Crochet Ribbed Cowl

If you want to keep cozy in style, then this easy crochet ribbed cowl pattern is perfect for you. It is worked in basic stitches, but into one loop only to create a beautifully ribbed texture on one side of the fabric. While the ribs are beautiful, they are not as deep as in the Falling Back Cowl Pattern, which you might also enjoy.

There’s no stitch multiple required for the stitch count making it easy to adjust the size, thus giving you endless styling options. Whether you prefer a long and wide cowl as shown, or a short and skinny cowl, this pattern makes it super easy to customize as you like.

Use stripes to make the most of your leftover yarn, or use a solid color as shown. Either way, the ribbed textures look lovely any way you choose to wear them.
