The Yarn You’ll Need for This Chunky Beginner Cowl

This cowl uses less than 2 skeins of Cozy Wool from Michaels in the color Golden Rod which is a thick, chunky yarn. Bulky yarn is perfect to use on projects like this because it works up so fast and it looks so cozy!

If you can’t find the Cozy Wool yarn I would suggest using Wool-Ease Thick & Quick from Lion Brand as a substitute which can easily be found almost anywhere online including my go-to shopping place, Michaels.com.

    Hi! I’m a new crocheter and am having a Hard time joining the rows. My first hex of each round seems to be shifting to the left, making a diagonal, not stacking straight up and down on top of each other (does that make sense?). I guess I’m doing something wrong with the slip stitch and first 2 chains. Any pointers? Thanks!

      HI Sam,
      That does happen when working in the round where you join. It makes a almost diagonal line. You are not doing anything wrong. 🙂

    If you chain 40 it will be a wrist cowl. I think that might be a mistake . It’s just too small that way.

      Hi Denise,

      The sizing will work out as along as you follow the gauge and have 5 half double crochets for every 4 inches. Happy Crocheting.

    I tried printing off one of your patterns and it would not print anything more than just an inch or more of the print.

    It was the one hour beginner cowl

    The cowl I am masking does go over my head. Ism told that I have a big head (not size). What am I doing wrong

      Hi Carroll,
      Are you saying it does not fit? If it doesn’t fit it means your gauge is probably not correct. You will need to try to get 4 inches for every 5 HDC’s you are making. Hope this helps!

    I’ve tried this with both the cozy wool yarn and another super chunky yarn and I cannot get the guage right with a 9mm hook. I only get 5 hdc to 2 inches. Not sure what the problem is. I’m a fairly loose crocheters and don’t usually have guage problems.

      Hi Brenda,
      You could try a 10mm hook and see if that works if you have one. I tend to crochet very loosely So that may be the reason.

    I have chunky size 5 yarn – would you still use a size 9 needle?

      Hi Becky,
      You could try it with a 9mm hook and it should work but maybe a little less chunky 🙂

    Did you double the yarn? I did the pattern and used 1 skein, did you use both? I love the cowl, so lush.

      This pattern takes 2 skeins of yarn to complete. Hope this helps.

    Should the cowl be the same size around throughout the entire cowl?

      Hi Brooke,

      It should stay the same size.
