Concept Cowl

This cowl is crocheted flat, bottom-up and then seamed on the short side.

The design consists of alternating right-leaning and left-leaning cables made by crossing 4 stitches either to the back or the front of the work on the previous 4 stitches. If this sentence does not make sense now, I hope it will after you follow the step-by-step tutorial below. What is important to understand at this point is that all the cables are made of 8 stitches in total and that they’re all crocheted in the return pass.

At the bottom and at the top of the cowl, I used a few rows of simple Tunisian rib stitch.

Since the Tunisian rib stitch is a more relaxed stitch than the cables, the top and bottom of the cowl are naturally slightly wider than the body, which is ideal for a good fitting.
