Twisted Cowl Crochet Pattern

Work this twisted cowl crochet pattern up in one or more colors. I chose two colors, but it’s versatile so you can easily choose as many as you like to clean up your yarn stash.

The pattern is given in two sizes, a short and a long cowl, that you can wear in several different ways. A stitch multiple is also provided so you can easily make this to a custom fit as well.

And because it’s so easy to adjust in size, you can easily substitute your favorite yarn and hook sizes and adjust your starting chains accordingly.
