An excellent introduction to crocheting in the round, this generously sized cowl is a staple fall accessory. It’s worked in a spiral, giving a diagonal appearance to the lines of the stitch pattern. Wear this cowl loosely around your neck, pull it over your shoulders, or wrap it twice around your neck to guard against extra chilly days.
