Crocheting a chunky cowl doesn’t get any faster than this!

Simply worked with gorgeous Malabrigo, Mecha yarn and a large hook, the moebius zips through your fingers. Experience the magic of crocheting the moebius shape, which has a 180-degree twist, created at the very start of the project. It is a one-sided, one-edge object.

Instead of a traditional chain stitch, this project begins with the foundation double crochet method, which produces a relaxed beginning to the work.

Join the fun and add this technique to your crochet “toolbox”. Once you get going, you will want to crochet a chunky moebius cowl for everyone you love!

I’ve made a video (with bird accompaniment) showing most of the process.
