  3. YAY!!!!!!

  4. Super cute! Thanks for the pattern

  5. Love the cowl! Can I ask, when I have joined the first round and then chained 2 does the first hdc go into this stitch or the next one?

  6. Nice…
    Anna

  7. AWESOME pattern Elena! Thank for so much for a great tutorial x

  11. Pretty cowl! I love the big rose, too. Thanks for sharing this at CAL link party 🙂

  12. Beautiful cowl. Love it thanks

  13. I really like this cowl n you showed it in my favorite color purple. What yarn did you use! Thank you so much for giving this pattern free! What a blessing for us seniors.

    • Thank you for loving my work… I believe that purple one is made from Deborah Norville Serenity Chunky Weight Yarn in Parachute Purple…. I made several of these cowls and this brand was my favorite to work with on this pattern! I have a hat pattern coming out this week that will also be for free…

  14. Hi! How can I get this pattern before u take it away? I only have a tablet n printer. Thank you, Valerie

    • The pattern will be up for several more weeks… Then will be for sale on Etsy in pdf form. If you cant print it, maybe write it out. If you are not able to get it printed or written before it goes to Etsy, let me know and I will email it to you or something…

  15. beautiful creations

  16. Thank you so much for this pattern, Elena 🙂
    I made it up as part of an anniversary present to a dear friend’s daughter, and she absolutely loved it! It was straightforward to make, and is very comfortable to wear, I’ve been told – so many thanks for your generosity in providing the pattern for free 🙂

  17. wish we could print just the pattern and not all the advertisements and comments. 🙁

    • All you need to do is highlight the directions and copy and paste it to a word document… Then you only get the directions and you can print it from there… If this doesnt work… I will do it and email it to you…

  18. Thank you so much for sharing your pattern, it’s really lovely. I’ve tried to make a flower only once before and failed miserably. Even though I wasn’t able to get 12 ch 3 spaces, turns out 9 or 10 spaces make a perfect flower as well. Hooray 🙂

  19. Thanks, so much, for this pattern, just printed off, and going to a show tomorrow , and will start this pattern while on the road, hope I can master it, it looks very pretty, thank you so much for sharing this pattern, I have
    been crocheting and knitting for quite a few years, and it is therapy for my arthritis in my hands, and my mind, it works well on all kinds of moods, (ha). I always take my bags with me when we go anyplace, and used to be that my husband complained because I was always taking my bags, but now, he does not, because he knows where ever we end up, I am satisfied to have something in my hands, while he is doing his thing, thanks again. look forward to hearing from you again, my email, is [email protected], would love to hear about something new and easy, thanks again, and have a wonderful week-end.

    • Thanks for checking in and trying out my cowl!!! I travel with projects everytime! You can also check in on Facebook if you havent already… I have a daily free pattern find series and you may find some things you like there…

  24. could you make pattern print friendly without all the comments thank you

  25. Just finished this cowl in black & I love it!!! I used Lion Brand Hometown USA. Just discovered this yarn. So soft. Using 2skeins I was able to make the cowl & hat to wear to church tomorrow. Had a bit of a prob understanding the flower, but with persistance, I came thru. Thanks for the pattern. Will be making a lot of these.

  26. I love this cowl and would love to make it, but is there anyway to print this pattern without printing all the pictures to save on paper and ink. Am I missing the print button. Thanks you
