Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky yarn (weight 6)
• Crochet Hook: Size N/P-15 (10 mm) crochet hook
• Gauge: 8 stitches and 6 rows = 4 inches in pattern stitch

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Start with a magic ring: Create a magic ring by wrapping the yarn around your fingers and pulling a loop through. This will be the foundation of your cowl.
2. Chain 2: This counts as your first double crochet. Now, work 11 double crochets into the magic ring. You should have a total of 12 double crochets in the ring.
3. Tighten the ring: Pull the tail of the yarn to tighten the magic ring. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the beginning chain (the chain 2).
4. Round 2: Chain 2, then double crochet in the same stitch. Now, double crochet in each stitch around for a total of 12 stitches. Join with a slip stitch.
5. Round 3: Chain 2, then *2 double crochets in the next stitch, 1 double crochet in the next stitch; repeat from * around. You should have a total of 18 stitches. Join with a slip stitch.
6. Continue increasing: Keep increasing in this manner until you reach a total of 48 stitches. To do this, in each subsequent round, increase the number of double crochets between increases by one (e.g., 2 double crochets in the next stitch, then 2 double crochets in the next two stitches, and so on).
7. Work even: Once you have 48 stitches, work even (no increases) for 10 rounds. This will give your cowl the desired height.
8. Create the textured pattern: To add texture, alternate between front post double crochet and back post double crochet for the next 6 rounds. This will create a beautiful ribbed effect.
9. Finish with a clean edge: Work one final round of single crochet around the top edge of the cowl. This will help to create a neat finish.
10. Fasten off: Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last loop to secure it. Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle.

Congratulations! You have successfully created your very own cozy cowl scarf. Enjoy wearing it or gifting it to someone special!
