**Pattern Only** Herringbone Cowl Pattern
**Pattern Only** Herringbone Cowl Pattern
Sometimes you are just looking for a project that whips up quickly and is done in a sitting. This bulky yarn cowl is exactly that kind of project. It is a great project for a beginning crochet practitioner who wants to expand beyond the basic stitches and learn to foundation crochet and crochet in the round. The herringbone half double crochets give this piece a unique and interesting texture.
