When you’re racing neck and neck toward the holiday gift-making finishing line, this cowl is just the thing. It features built-in buttonholes, and the heavily textured Crinkle Stitch pattern looks great on both sides, too! Super-bulky, super-quick, super-versatile – in short, a super choice for last-minute crafting.

Pattern uses American crochet terminology.
