Cumulus Cowl by Two of Wands
What is Being Made
The Cumulus Cowl is a beginner-friendly crochet cowl designed to provide warmth and style. This finished piece measures 33 inches (84 centimeters) in circumference and 19 inches (48 centimeters) in height, making it a versatile neckwear accessory suitable for layering and everyday wear.
Crochet Techniques and Construction
This pattern employs a bobble stitch technique as its primary decorative element, creating textured dimension throughout the cowl. The bobble stitch is a foundational crochet technique where multiple loops are worked into a single stitch and then drawn together, producing a three-dimensional popcorn-like effect. The pattern uses standard US crochet terminology and is structured around a repeating bobble motif worked in rounds to build the circular cowl shape.
Stitches Used
- Make Bobble (MB) - The signature stitch of this design, created by working multiple yarn overs and loops into the same stitch, then drawing all loops together to form a bobble
- Chain (Ch) - Used for foundation and construction
- Single Crochet (Sc) - A fundamental stitch providing structure
- Slip Stitch (Sl st) - Used for joining rounds
- Chain Space (Ch sp) - Openwork areas created by chains between stitches
Materials and Specifications
The Cumulus Cowl requires 5 skeins of Lion Brand Yarn Wool-Ease Thick & Quick in Slate (colorway 640-148), a super chunky weight yarn that works up quickly and provides excellent drape. A US N/P/15 (10mm) crochet hook is used to work with this substantial yarn weight. A tapestry needle is needed for weaving in yarn ends upon completion. The gauge is 3 bobbles plus 4 rounds equaling 4 inches (10 centimeters), which helps ensure the finished cowl achieves the specified dimensions.
Difficulty Level
Rated as a beginner project, the Cumulus Cowl is accessible to newer crocheters while introducing the bobble stitch technique. The straightforward construction and repetitive stitch pattern make it an ideal project for building foundational skills.
