Hyacinth Cowl: A new Crochet Pattern


Reader

When I made the Hyacinth Hat and then fell in love with it, and barely took it off, I knew I wanted to make a cowl to match it. When I first starting imagining how it would look, I thought it was just going to be a bear to write up. I made my first sample and it worked up sooo easy. I was surprised at how well the linen stitch worked with the post stitches. The end result is a really beautiful cowl that looks like you spent a lifetime working on it, but in reality its a fairly quick project (for a fingering weight project) with a lot of repeating.

This is a light weight cowl perfect for that changing over weather, when it starts cold in the morning, but warms up as the day heads into the afternoon. Just like the hat the simple lines in the pattern makes it wearable for just about everyone who wants a little more warmth. For the yarn I chose Stroll Fingering yarn that you can find on Crochet.com. It is one on my favorite fingering yarns to use just because it is so soft and wearable. Below I'm providing you an affiliate link to the yarn. I get a small contribution from your shopping for the yarn.


Where to find the Pattern

You can find this pattern in all of my shops. Below you will find their links. As usual there is a sale price for the first week on Ravelry.


I'll be updating the Hyacinth Hat pattern this week. Not much is changing, just some of the phrasing to better match the cowl pattern so be on the lookout for that if it is a pattern you have already purchased.

Thanks for all your support, Julia

Reader Designs by Diligence is 14 years old this week. I can hardly believe I have been creating things for you for that long. What a joy its been from my first design appearing in Crochetvolution to now. I wanted to celebrate by offering a free knitting pattern just for this week. Restful Hat In my quest for using up the yarn I have. I decided to use up some mini skeins. I also added a lace weight mohair, and the result was the softest 2 tone hat that I have thoroughly enjoyed wearing this...

Reader It doesn't seem possible that the cold weather is just around the corner. I wanted to get this pattern out to you early so you could have it finished before you really needed it. This is a stranded knit pattern with a chart and instructions to make this beautiful cowl. This time I decided to make it with a DK weight yarn for the extra squish and warmth and I'm so glad that I did. It uses 200 grams of yarn. Unfortunately it uses 110 grams of the background color so you need 3 skeins...
