Lookin' Swell Cowl
"Check out these FREE Tunisian crochet patterns. A perfect beginner Tunisian crochet scarf pattern using Pima cotton yarn. This pattern is for a knit-like beginner-friendly Tunisian crochet cowl in child and adult sizes that can be completed in 1 to 2 hours. It’s the perfect cowl to practice the basic Tunisian knit stitch! The best part is that it works up super fast so it’s great for market prep and gift making! You can make a matching one for your little one as well. A couple of years ago I released a super quick and easy ear warmer using We Crochet Billow yarn that I was gifted! Thanks to We Crochet for yarn support! This yarn is a perfect alternative for those who have wool allergies but still want something super soft and cozy for those extra chilly nights! This yarn is really great because it is a 100% Pima Cotton yarn that gives a beautiful texture. I was inspired by the yarn name provided on the label, Swell. I thought a modern crochet scarf pattern would be perfect to go with this name so I decided to make this knit like crochet cowl and an ear warmer to go along with it! I hope you love making it as much as I did!
