Winter Lilac Cowl
This Winter Lilac Cowl is a tall cowl that when worn will gather at your neck keeping you warm and comfortable. It’s also not as long as other cowls making it great for wearing just underneath your coat. It’s a quick and easy cowl to work up using stitch combinations resembling a sideways “V” you see in knit projects.

- You can make your cowl longer by crocheting a longer FHDC. You can also make it taller or shorter by repeating the pattern row however many times you desire.
- To make your “V” stand out more, change colors at the beginning of each sl st row, which is row 2.
