Crochet Cowl

handcraftbygrip-cowlCrochet Cowl in cotton yarn, wear it to work or parties as a nice shawl. I made one to try it out in 2012 and just love it! Follow this easy pattern to get started!

This post is mentioned on Swedish site Handunik. For Swedish tips, check out my blog Pyssel&Inspiration.blogspot.com!

Crochet a cowl

  • Make a series of chain stitches, try to judge how big you want the cowl to be.
  • Join the ends together with a slip stitch to form a circle.
  • Start crocheting around the circle, I normally make the first round with 1 single stitch in every chain stitch. Join together with slip stitch.
  • Crochet the style you want the cowl, use double stitches to make a loose pattern.

Pattern crochet shawl

Start on top of shawl and chain loosely 235 sts.
1st row: 1 sc in the 9th ch from hook, * 6 ch, skip 5 ch, 1 sc in following ch *, repeat *-* until end of row and finish with 6 ch, skip 2 ch, 1 sc in last ch.
2nd row: crochet sl st up to the top of the 1st ch-bow, * 6 ch, 1 sc on top of following bow *, repeat *-* until end of row (this way you’ll dec ½ bow in each side on every row). *-* = 1 repeat.
Repeat 2nd row until there is only 1 bow left. Cut thread and fasten.

Start by putting pearls on the yarn, maximum 30 at the time.
When you run out of pearls on the thread, cut thread (preferably in side of shawl) and put another 30 pearls on the yarn. The idea is that you with even intervals pull up a pearl that will be locked when you crochet following sc.

Spring is in the air

And with spring comes the desire to change the winter clothing for spring clothing. I am producing shawls made of cotton and viscose. Excellent for everyday use as well as to a nice dress for indoor events.

Girly gear

I’ve made some girly clothing for a colleague, a pink and green shawl and pink beanie.

My own favourite shawl this winter is handmade with two colors, pink and dark red. This project took about 8 hours to finish.
