If you’re in need of some extra warmth this winter, check out some of these easy crochet cowls.
If you’re not sure what a cowl is, it’s basically a neck warmer or infinity scarf that wraps right around your neck to keep your neck toasty warm in the cold weather. They can use lacy crochet stitches or denser stitches with bulky yarn and everything in between.
I’ve compiled a list of the coziest, stylish crochet cowls and infinity scarf crochet patterns to wear this season. There are some great gifts for friends. Or keep them all for yourself. I wouldn’t blame you.
Crocheted cowls are so easy to just throw on and go. They add a simple and unique touch to every outfit, and they’re so comfy and cozy. Love cozy? Check out my Crocheters Care Package.
