Weave Me In Cowl

"Weave Me In Cowl is the perfect project for lazy weekend days, easy enough to crochet while watching your favourite show with a bit of challenge due to working front and back post stitches. You can whip it up in a few evenings, which makes it a fantastic last-minute gift for friends and family. The final piece is guaranteed to keep you toasty during cold and windy winter days, while giving you a bit of luxury feeling due to the lush wool and alpaca blend."

NotesIt is important to crochet loosely for this project as the fabric tends to fold over forward if the stitches are worked too tightly.
The Cowl is worked flat with front and back post double crochet stitches forming the Celtic Weave pattern (RS of the project). The former are crocheted facing RS and the latter facing WS.
The Celtic Weave pattern is worked over 4 stitches within a row and 2 row repeat.
The first row consists of foundation double crochet stitches, while the last row is worked in double crochet stitches.
