Hello, my lovely gumdrop! As promised, I have a beginner level crochet cowl pattern that I want to share with you this week. Read on to learn more about our Conidae cowl!
This striped cowl, a sister pattern to our Conasprella cowl, was designed for us by Janica York Carter.
She says, “Keep it cozy with a thick, sumptuous cowl. Create rich texture and shape with just three basic crochet stitches worked in back loops. Add stripes by changing colors every two rows, carrying unused colors up the side. A single seam completes the circle, or you can simply crochet the first and last rows together. With a larger circumference at the shoulders and a smaller circumference at the head, this protective cone is reminiscent of the beautifully striated, conical shells of conidae, or cone snails.”
This pattern calls for our 100% superwash merino wool Buttery Bulky yarn. You’ll need a total of 4 skeins for this cowl, with 2 skeins being used for the main color (MC) and 2 skeins for the contrasting color (CC).
The sample shown here used approximately 212 yards of Conch Shell (MC) and 204 yards of Marshmallow (CC) or 416 yards total.
