Peachy Cowl Free Crochet Pattern

The Peachy Cowl Free Crochet Pattern crochet pattern is a shawl/cowl hybrid. If you love the look of shawls but have a hard time styling them this cowl is perfect for you. The pattern uses simple stitches and I’ve included a video tutorial so even even if you are fairly new to crochet you should be able to make it.

For this pattern I used 2 skeins of Uptown Worsted Hues in the colorway Painted Desert from Universal Yarn. I’ve used Uptown before I love that this acrylic is anti-pilling. It’s super soft and sure to hold up over time.

the Hues colorways are new. They all looked so beautiful I knew I had to try them. If solid colorways are more your thing Uptown Worsted is the perfect substitute.
