Free Crochet Pattern – Warm Winter Cowl Crochet Pattern

by

Winter will be here soon, and I’ve got just the thing.

If you’re looking for something to grab on your way out the door, the Warm Winter Cowl is perfect.

It will keep you warm and cozy outside in the cold. But it’s small enough to throw in your purse once you’re inside. No unnecessary bulk like with some scarves.

The best part about this cowl is the decorative puff stitch. It’s easy to get the hang of and looks beautiful whenever it’s used. It’s made out of an acrylic wool blend that’s machine washable, so it’s a perfect gift. Easy to care for!

  1. I hate to complain about anything free, but I can’t seem to find the pattern itself here (or a link)??

Girls Crochet Handbags – A Sweet Little Crochet Bag Pattern With Vintage Charm

This is a cute, no-fuss crochet bag pattern that feels very handmade in the nicest possible way. The Girls Crochet Handbags project on CraftBits uses Lily Sugar’n Cream cotton yarn, a 5 mm hook, and simple single crochet rows to create an easy tote-style bag, finished with straps and little crochet flowers for extra detail.

What I like about this one is that it is simple enough to play around with. The pattern suggests changing colours to make stripes or edging, so it would be easy to match it to a child’s outfit or just use up those leftover cotton yarn bits we all keep pretending are “too useful to throw away.” The sample bag is worked to around 50 rows, so you can also tweak the size a little if needed.

It definitely has that older-style craft pattern feel, which can be charming, but it also means you may need to read through the instructions carefully before starting. Even one of the comments mentions the wording being a little confusing, so I would say this is best for crocheters who are comfortable filling in the occasional gap rather than absolute beginners wanting lots of hand-holding.
