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 I have a new pattern to share with you today. Say Hello to Whorl Around Cowl. I wanted an accessory that showed whimsy and movement. In the winter when its cold and unmotivating, I wanted a reminder that wonder still exists. I took inspiration from Poinsettias, and looking inside a kaleidoscope. I didn't want it to be obvious, but fluid to interpretation. It was hard to get a picture of the full pattern and movement of this cowl, so please excuse this very unworthy of instagram picture...

Reader I have a new Pattern for you today. cottage garden cowl worn by me One of my favorite things about now owning a home after renting for so long is creating a garden around the house. I wanted to make a cowl to celebrate that. Even though its getting cold and I have had to put my garden to sleep for winter, I have a cowl to brighten my day with the colors of my garden.

Reader I hope you all have had a great summer. I had a busy and fulfilling summer. The best part is getting to be with my girls. We spent a lot of time with family, and friends. I've really enjoyed having a garden this year. I think my favorite part of summer was that I got to go to church camp with my oldest. It was a week of MAD (music, arts, and drama) camp. I was in charge of the arts part of camp. I can't tell you how fun it was to be creative and teaching again. I of course even taught...
