Product Description
The Winter Rose Cowl pattern is simple, classy, and full of texture. The cowl has a slight taper in at the top edge near the face, so you’re able to pull it up when it’s really chilly. It naturally folds up and sits quite lovely around the next, but the extra height makes it super cozy. You can also wear it upside down if you like your cowls loose around your face, or you can make both edges loose. I have instructions for both fits. It’s unique in it’s design and construction, and still quite simple.
SKILL LEVELThis pattern is beginner-friendly, but does require some knowledge of basic stitches and pattern reading. Pattern includes some photos to demonstrate instructions.
CUSTOMIZATIONS Notes are included for adjusting the height, and width of the cowl. It’s easily customizable, though each size has been tested for accuracy.
I hope you enjoy making this cowl as much as I do. It's the perfect market item.

What Is Being Made
The Winter Rose Cowl is a beginner-friendly crochet cowl pattern designed by Jasmine Brackenbury at Ocean Peak Designs. This downloadable PDF pattern provides instructions for creating a cozy neck accessory available in two sizes: an adult version and a toddler version. The cowl is worked in the round and finished by closing the ends together, creating a seamless tubular garment perfect for cold weather wear.
Sizes and Dimensions
Adult Cowl: The body measures 22.25 inches long by 12.25 inches high before closing. Once finished and laid flat, the cowl is 11.75 inches across by 13.5 inches tall.
Toddler Cowl: The body measures 19.25 inches long by 7.75 inches high before closing.
Crochet Techniques and Stitches
The Winter Rose Cowl uses fundamental crochet techniques suitable for beginners. The pattern incorporates several essential stitches to create its textured design:
- Chain stitches (ch): Foundation and turning chains that form the base of the pattern
- Single crochet (sc): A basic short stitch used throughout the pattern for structure
- Half double crochet (hdc): A medium-height stitch that adds dimension to the fabric
- Double crochet (dc): A taller stitch used to create openness and drape in the cowl
- Single crochet 2 together (sc2tog): A decrease stitch used to shape the garment
- Slip stitch (sl st): Used to join rounds and create seamless transitions
- Back loop only (BLO): A technique where stitches are worked through only the back loop to create textured ridges
- Suzette stitch clusters: The pattern uses clusters of suzette stitches as its primary textural element, with gauge measured at 5.25 clusters per measurement unit
Materials Required
The Winter Rose Cowl is worked with chunky weight yarn, specifically #4 weight (Heavy Worsted) yarn. The sample pattern uses We Are Knitters - The Petite Wool.
Yarn quantities:
- Adult size: 2 skeins of 100g (140 meters/153 yards each), totaling approximately 203 meters or 222 yards
- Toddler size: 1 skein of 100g (118 meters/129 yards)
A 7mm crochet hook (or size needed to obtain proper gauge) is required for this project. Additional materials include a yarn needle for weaving in ends, scissors, a tape measure for checking dimensions, and a stitch marker to track rounds.
Gauge
The pattern specifies a gauge of 10.5 stitches (5.25 clusters of suzette stitches) by 8.5 rows over 4 inches, measured unblocked and unstretched. Achieving the correct gauge ensures the finished cowl will meet the intended dimensions.
Skill Level
Rated as an Easy/Beginner skill level, the Winter Rose Cowl is an excellent introductory project for those new to crochet. The pattern uses basic stitches and straightforward construction methods, making it accessible to beginners while still producing a beautiful, wearable finished piece.
