Working Man's Cowl


Silver Post Medal for All Time! 293 Posts

side view of husband wearing cowlI made this pattern for my husband. He has to work outside a lot and sometimes in blizzard conditions. He can't have scarf ends in the way of his power tools, so I thought a thick cowl would be better. He agreed!

It is somewhat snug fitting and therefore versatile. He likes to pull it up over his ears a lot to really shield him from the elements.
Best part, it's made with 3 strands of #4 Red Heart and a big ol' hook. That means you can whip this up in less than an hour! Have fun.

Total Time: Less than 1 hour

  1. With 3 strands of yarn and a 11.5mm hook, ch 30. Join with a slip stitch in the first ch to make a ring.

It's obvious in your husband's eyes that he is well aware that he is a lucky man! Very nice work!

The cowl looks great, however there are no men in my life. The cowl really is a great idea. Watch out, though, now all his working buddies will want one. Good luck!
