Description

This luscious, lacy cowl is crocheted infinity or Moebius style, beginning with a center strip and worked seamlessly in continuous figure 8s. Worn as a shoulder wrap or double-twisted around the head as a hood, the Valley Cowl is a lovely, practical, and quick-to-crochet gift.

The sample is crocheted in Valley Yarns Deerfield, a soft, lustrous DK blend of alpaca and silk. This construction also works wonderfully with many of your favorite Valley Yarns, including hand-dyed yarns. For suggestions and adjustments needed for substituting yarns, see the tips included in this pattern. If you’re new to infinity or Moebius style designs, check out the super helpful Foundation Double Crochet Infinity Style tutorial.
