Crochet Cowl and Hat

I made this crochet pattern up, mimicking something that my grandmother knit when I was young. It is super cool because it can be either a cowl or a hat, with a drawstring at the top.

It works as a perfect gift for friends and family and one size fits all!

Supplies:

Yarn

Scissors

Crochet Hook

Skills needed:

Chain

Double crochet

Slip stitch

To begin, chain 80, then slip stitch into the very first chain you created. Next chain 2.

Place 1 double crochet in the first 5 stitches, then chain one. Skip one stitch and place a double crochet in the next 5. Repeat this pattern all the way around. Slip stitch into the first double crochet of the round and chain 2.

For rows 2-15: chain 2, place one double crochet in each stitch around and then slip stitch into the first double crochet of the round.

To make the draw string simply chain 120. Optional: create 1 knot on both ends.

Weave the string of chains in and out through the holes we created in round 1. To make it into a hat, simply pull on both ends of the string evenly and make a tie a knot or bow.
