Crochet Scales Cowl

This cowl is inspired by my knitted design Colorful Scales Cowl. This cowl uses the same modular technique as the knitted version. This is a bandana-style cowl with a longer triangular front and shorter back.

The cowl is made with twenty seven triangle elements that connect with each other to form scales. You will work with only one triangle element at a time.

The pattern is written for two sizes, adult small and medium but it gives also directions on how you can change the size by changing yarn thickness and hook size, or by changing the number of stitches for each element.
