Frogging Along


Update: Boy did I ever name this one correctly. I really have to learn not to start projects when I am tired. Did a little rewriting to try and make the project flow more smoothly and even out the finished product, fixed in instructions below.

PINK & GREY COWL 
Hook size: N - 9 mm
Yarns: Caron Sayelle, Dark Grey, unfortunately no yardage noted
and Red Heart Super Saver, Shocking Pink, 364 yrds/333 m

Width:  7.5 inches
Length:  34 inches
Rows:  22 total

Ch 16 - for 7 clusters on Row 1

Row 1:   DTC (skip ch 3, of cluster) start in 4th ch from hook,
               ch 1, TTC in second ch st and repeat to the end of row
              
Row 2:  ch 4, TTC in next ch space, * ch 1, TTC in next ch space * 
              repeat from *, tr (triple crotchet) into center of cluster,  turn

Row 3:  DTC in first chain space next to hook, * ch 1, TTC *
              repeat from * to the end of row

REPEAT - Row 2 & Row three to desired length,
              end on a Row 2 repeat and sew together.

Edge of Pink/Grey Cowl:  I did a shell scallop on one edge only, 5 dc in each edge loop and a sc in each edge cluster around.


Original Post

Just trying to reduce my yarn stash, by making a cowl out of some of the odds and ends.

I spent more time on frogging this pattern than I did crocheting it,
took me less than 1/2 a day to finish.
