Linen the Dream Crochet Cowl

Calm and soothing, linen stitch slips off your hook and becomes a gorgeous fabric. The dynamic striping allows the colors of your yarn to shine. The Single size cowl is meant to be worn loosely around your neck to stop the wind and provide a beautiful pop of color. The Double size can be draped loosely around the neck or shoulders or be looped double around your neck for extra cozy warmth. Cowl is worked bottom-up in the round. Pattern uses US crochet terminology. Instructions are included for sock weight yarn and DK weight yarn. Please note, linen stitch is a tight non-stretchy fabric, therefore you will use a larger hook for the main section of the cowl and a smaller hook for the edging. **Size and Gauge** Single (Double) Circumference- 24”/ 61cm (38"/ 97cm) Length- 12”/ 30cm (10”/ 25cm) Sock Weight: 22 sts x 24 rounds per 4”/ 10cm linen stitch using G (4mm) hook DK Weight: 17 sts x 20 rounds per 4”/ 10cm linen stitch using J (6) hook **Materials** Sock Weight: 2 colors of Yarn Over New York sock weight yarn or equivalent sock weight yarn 200-220 (300-350) yds per color / 400-450 (600-700) yds total For border D (3.25mm) crochet hook For linen stitch section G (4mm) crochet hook DK Weight: 2 colors of Yarn Over New York Greenwich Village DK or equivalent DK weight yarn 200-220 (300-350) yds per color / 400-450 (600-700) yds total For border 7 (4.5mm) crochet hook For linen stitch section I (5.5mm) crochet hook 3 locking stitch markers Large-eye needle (for weaving in ends) Find the yarn at [https://yarnovernewyork.com/][1] [1]: https://yarnovernewyork.com/
