“Half Double Crochet” Winter Set – Free Twisted Cowl Pattern

The second piece to my “Half Double Crochet” Winter Set is the Twisted Cowl.  It is just the perfect accessory to keep your neck warm from that cold winter wind, all the while looking so stylish!!  Again, it is one of the four pieces made from one skein of yarn and is made using almost entirely the half double crochet stitch.

Twisted Cowl Pattern

Row 1:  Chain 21.

Row 2:  Work 1 hdc in the first chain.  Work 1 hdc in each chain across the row.  Ch 1.  Turn.  (20 hdc)

Repeat Row 2 until the fabric is approximately 28 inches long.

Do not finish off yarn.

Set scarf on a table and take one end and twist it twice.  Match the right side of both short ends together.

Create seam using a single crochet stitch that is worked through both ends of the fabric.

End with a Ch 1.  Fasten off yarn and work in ends.

Turn cowl so the the seam is on the inside.

Your cowl is ready to wear!!

Enjoy your lovely new twisted cowl!
