Tip #1: Maintain a smooth edge on your starting round by working into the back bump of the chain

Stitch pattern is also known as the Griddle Stitch or Lemon Peel Stitch.

Chain

Chain 90. (To change width of scarf, increase/decrease in multiples of two).

Body

Row/Round 1: Work into the back bumps of the chain. dc in the 2nd chain from the hook, *sc in the next ch, dc in the next ch – repeat from * until end of row (the last stitch should be dc into the last chain), sl st into the top of the first dc at the start of row (being careful not to twist the row) – 89 sts

Round 2: ch 1, sc into the same st, *dc into the next st (which should be a sc from the previous row), sc into the next st (which should be a dc from the previous row) –  repeat from * until end of row (the last st should be sc into the top of the last dc from the previous row), – 89 sts

When the cold weather hits, my favorite type of neckwear is a neckwarmer or cowl. They’re just so much easier to put on and deal with than trying to loop around a scarf. Plus, when you’re wearing a bulky coat, the cowl doesn’t bunch up underneath it. I designed a super quick and easy cowl here with super bulky weight yarn and a large crochet hook so you can make it fast.
