How to Crochet a Cowl

Materials:

• N Size Crochet Hook
• 1 skein Loops & Threads Charisma in Black
• 1 skein Loops & Threads Charisma in Purple
• 1 skein Loops & Threads Charisma in White
• 1 skein Loops & Threads Dewdrops in Amethyst
• 1 skein Loops & Threads Dewdrops in Diamond
• Yarn needle
• Scissors for cutting & finishing off ends

Notes:

• Each round will finish with a slip stitch to the beginning cluster of the row.
• Beginning Cluster:- ch 2 + 2 dc in the same stitch (the ch 2 will count as a dc for the beginning cluster only)
• Pattern Cluster – 3 dc in same stitch
• Do NOT chain any stitches between clusters.
• It was my intention as I created this scarf that the clusters remain close, not too much space between as a more traditional cluster stitch may be, as I wanted this to be plush and cozy.
• As you’re working or even when you’re done, I found that tugging the stitches both vertically and horizontally across the rows & columns helped to seat the clusters between other clusters making sure they settled where they were supposed to.
• For changing colors I found it easiest to just tie off and cut the yarn mostly due to the number of colors in use and their mass to move around each other. It is your decision if you want to carry through or tie off.
