Because you can wear it in so many different ways we have nicknamed it "The Thneed" at our house.
"
I came up with the pattern, you are welcome to use the pattern to make or sell your own. I do ask that you link back to this post in your listing or if you blog about it. Thanks
If you don't want to make your own Thneed I will be listing this one in my shop, I would be happy to make you a custom cowl, if you would like.
The pattern is very simple, I really love the look of the simple stitches together.
This pattern is great for a beginner. If you have any questions I am more than happy to answer them. You can leave questions in the comments or e-mail them to me.
Gage for the project isn't important.
Abbreviations:
DC-double crochet
SC-single crochet
I used 4 skeins of Hometown USA yarn, it is super chunky size 6 yarn, in scarlet.
Hook size K.
Chain 150, join into first chain with a slip stitch. Making a circle, make sure you don't twist the chain.
Round 1 chain 2, DC into same stitch you joined in. DC into each stitch around. Join with slip stitch into first DC.
Round 2 chain 2, SC into same stitch you joined in. SC into each stitch around. Join with slip stitch into first SC.
Round 3 - 11 repeat round 1 and 2, join with slip stitch into first DC, fasten off and weave in ends.
If you would like to make a smaller cowl you can start with a chain of 100, and follow the pattern from there. To make it larger more like a shawl you can start with a chain of 200.
If you make one I would LOVE to see a photo. You can e-mail me a photo or share them on my Face Book page
If you need a refresher in how to hold your yarn and how to make a basic chain this tutorial will help. If you have questions about how to join the end of a round this tutorial from my friend Sarah at Repeat Crafter Me is great.
Thanks for stoppin' by and hangin' out.

It is SO pretty, and so. are. you. !!
You look fabulous, Kadie!!! Red really suits you. The thneed looks great no matter which way it's worn. I'm thinking I really should relearn to crochet before next Winter. That gives me 6 months... LOL!!!
I love this. The many variations are awesome and it gets cold up here, so this would be a great project. Thanks for the pattern - definitely pinning and making.
Love it! It's so versatile and it looks so cozy.

Hi! I just came across this! LOVE IT! It looks wider than most i've looked at. When you put this over your head, does it cover the back of your head too??? Would love to see a picture of this from behind!!
