Free Crochet Crystal Drops Cowl Pattern
Crochet Crystal Drops Cowl Pattern by Crochet For You.
Crochet Crystal Drops Cowl is my first pattern for 2016. For this cowl, I used a new stitch pattern I found another day. The wrong side of this stitch also has a pretty texture as same as right side. That’s why I folded the top edge of the cowl to show it clearly.
This is a free size pattern that means you can make it fit your desired length and wide. I haven’t tested with other weight of yarns, but I believe this pattern might be worked with DK and worsted.
Please share your experience with us if you worked with different weight yarns. I’d really like to hear your thoughts. 🙂

I like this, I might be able to use a pretty hand dyed skein with a plain yarn, but I cannot see where there are colour changes, am I missing it?
Cazzy
Oh, sorry, I see it now. C1 and C2, doh!
Kristina & Millie
so lovely Erangi! Thanks for sharing the pattern with us 🙂 It would be fun to make this in a variety of colors!

Hi Kristina and Millie. 🙂 Thank you for the nice comment.

I love this pattern! I have made 2 so far! One in the length given in the pattern and one smaller in size to fit closer to the neck. I also made an Ear Warmer as well. I’m almost tempted to make a blanket using this pattern because I love how both sides look. I’ll just have a lot of weaving of ends to do!
Erangi Udeshika
Awesome! 🙂 So glad you like this pattern. Making an Ear Warmer is a nice idea…
