Quick Covered Boxes Cowl Crochet Pattern

Create a deliciously cozy cowl quickly and easily! Patterns like this Quick Covered Boxes Cowl are fantastic for new crocheters because it requires a super bulky yarn so you finish the project that much faster. This project can be completed with one or two skeins of yarn, so it's a nice inexpensive accessory to work up. Tuck this cowl under your favorite jacket to stay warm on a crisp spring day!

From the Designer: "This quick and cozy cowl is beginner friendly. A self-striping yarn does all the colorwork for you."

Materials List

  • Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick yarn (80% acrylic/20% wool, 5 oz/140 g/87 yd/80 m) – 2 skeins in 611 Astroland, or approximately 87 yd (80 m) in any super bulky weight yarn. PLEASE NOTE: I used exactly 1 skein of yarn for this project, so if your gauge is different than mine, you may run out before finishing. That’s why I recommend getting 2 skeins just in case.
