Don't lose this pattern! 

~ Add it to your Ravelry Favorites and Queues!~

Materials used:

- 1 skein of RED HEART Boutique Swanky, color Sterling (I still had enough left over yarn from 1 ball)

- 5 mm crochet hook;

- yarn needle.

Cowl Size: 20 cm wide x 80 cm circumference

Stitches, terms (US) and abbreviations used:

ch = chain

sc = single crochet

dc = double crochet

V- st = ( 1dc, 1ch, 1dc) made into same stitch

csdc = chainless starting double crochet (See the Video Tutorial by Moogly) (If you don't master the csdc stitch,  you can use ch3 as alternative )

sk = skip

Notes:

The cowl is worked in rounds. You can make it wider adding more repeat rounds.

You can transform this cowl into an infinity scarf, starting with more chains (eventually double the number of chains for the cowl); the total number of the stitches should be a multiple of 11. You will need additional yarn.

The tab is optional.
