crochet pattern  for a textured cowl

With or Without buttons?

We all know that a crochet cowl is a versatile scarf that can be worn in a variety of ways. It can be worn loosely around the neck, or it can be buttoned together to create a more fitted look. The buttons can be decorative or functional, depending on your preference

The thing with this textured crochet cowl pattern is that it calls for a stylish button!

But, if you prefer it without, just sew the rectangle and fold it!

Notes

  • The  Spices Cowl is the perfect one for the fall, warm and cozy but not so bulky, soft and lacy so you can wear it with any outfit!
  • All Instructions for the Puff stitch  will be in the pattern
  • You can work the pattern with any kind of yarn. Please make a gauge before measuring your size.
  • I had this beautiful yarn but it is a DK weight and I wanted a more bulky feel so I used 2 strands.
  • Of course, you can choose any combination of colors or make it with one color as you wish!

What will it be? Cowl, an Infinity scarf, or a Snood?

You’re looking to crochet a neck warmer, but you’re not sure what to call it.

Well, let me break it down for you.

A crochet cowl is a tube of fabric that is worn around the neck. It can be short or long, and it can be made from any type of yarn. A snood is similar to a cowl, but it is typically wider and longer. It can also be worn as a hood. And finally, an infinity scarf is a long scarf that is made in a loop. It can be worn in a variety of ways, including as a cowl or a snood.

Which one should you make? It really depends on your personal preference.

If you want something that is versatile and can be worn in a variety of ways, then an infinity scarf is a good choice. But if you want something that is warm and cozy, then a cowl or snood is a better option.

No matter what you choose, I’m sure you’ll be warm and stylish this winter!
