The Winter Blooms Cowl is one of my first crochet patterns and it has now been given an upgrade! I used the new Caron X Pantone yarn for the new cowl, but any bulky (#5) weight yarn will work! This cowl uses the aligned puff stitch to create a gorgeous texture. The Winter Blooms Cowl will be a great accessory to your winter wardrobe!
