Easy Front Post Cowl Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

Easy Front Post Cowl
Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach of
 Posh Pooch Designs

This is a great crochet pattern for practicing 

Foundation Double Crochet  and Front Post Stitches.
Have figured out the New Color Pooling Technique?
I received some of the New Red Heart Pooling Yarn
 - Called Haute Pooling.
The other Pooling Colorways at This LINK
These Yarns are made with even 12 inch stripes of color 
to make it easier to "pool" the colors of the yarn.

This Cowl works
 up really fast, 
and once you learn

 the stitches, 
it is really easy.
Easily adjusted
 to any size - 
make it as long 
or wide as 
you want!

This Cowl is made using  
Red Heart Super Saver Neon Stripes.

Please add this Crochet Pattern to your Ravelry Favorites

Skill: Easy to Moderate

Materials:

Crochet hook – H/ 5.00MM

Yarn - Worsted Weight (4) 5 oz.

           I used Red Heart Super Saver Pooling - haute Pooling (1 skein)

Yarn Needle

Stitches:

Slip Stitch (slst)

Foundation Double Crochet (FDC)

Half Double Crochet (HDC)

Front Post Double Crochet (FPDC)

Size:  24 inches around X 8 inches

Gauge: 3 FDC = 1 inch, 2 rows = 1 inch
To make the cowl longer Add increments of 2 FDC, for the stitch pattern.

Notes:

Ch 3 counts as a dc

Rounds are joined with a slst

R: 1 – Option 1 - 72 FDC, join, ch 3

           (72FPDC)

R: 2 -*1 HDC in the next st, FPDC in the next st*

Repeat From * to * around, join, ch 3 (72 sts)

R: 3 - *1 HDC in the next HDC, FPDC in the next FPDC*

Repeat From * to * around, join, ch 3 (72 sts)

Make sure you are stitching HDC in a HDC, and FPDC in a FPDC.

R: 4 – R: 24 – Repeat R: 3

To make a matching headband only stitch 8 rows.

Tie off and Weave in your end after R: 24

If you want the Cowl bigger around, stitch more FDC

 at the beginning in increments of 2.

 If you want the Cowl thicker, continue to repeat R: 3

 till its the size you want.

I Love the Swirl of the color pooling yarn.
Now to make the matching headband.

68 FDC to start.
8 Rows of the Repeat Rows.

I Love It!
