Ruffled Shell Crochet Cowl: Easy Pattern With 3 Sizes

"The Ruffled Shell Cowl is quick to make, simple to follow along, and can be worked in 3 different sizes! This design is worked in rows using basic crochet stitches like chain, single and double crochet, and also uses a Shell and Half Shell stitch for a textured look. The cowl is finished with a ruffled border which is very easily worked with double crochet stitches. This is a great pattern because: Accessories are quick projects to work up! The cowl is fastened with buttons, giving lots of style options! Cowls make great gifts! You’ll get to practice a lot of crochet skills: Rows, stitch tension, gauge & size, specialty stitches (like the shell and half shell), applying a border, working ruffles, finishing techniques & more!"
