Learn how to crochet a bulky yarn cowl fast. This chunky crochet cowl pattern is available as a free PDF.
Crochet cowl patterns are great. Crocheted cowls keep you warm but stay out of the way. Pair this bulky yarn cowl with a matching ear warmer for a great set.
The crochet stitch used in this chunky crochet cowl pattern is the feather stitch in the round. The pattern is a one row repeat after you set it up. This crochet stitch uses a lot of yarn and makes a thick item.
You can pull the cowl up to meet the ear warmer for extra warmth. This chunky crochet cowl pattern has a thick woven fabric texture so there are few holes for cold wind to get through.
The yarn used in this crochet cowl pattern is hue + me from Lion Brand. The colors in this line of yarn go together really well. I chose three colors to make this chunky cowl: Bellini, Love Song, & Rose Water.
This lovely yarn is easy to work with and comes in several soft muted colors. Acrylic makes up most of the yarn but there is 20% wool in the yarn, so if you are sensitive to wool you will want to pick another yarn.
I have made a few other free cowl crochet patterns that you can try: Moss Stitch Chunky Cowl, Candy Cane Neck Warmer Pattern, Up and Down Cowl, and Cranberry Bulky Crochet Cowl Pattern.
