This beautiful Linen Stitch Crochet Bandana Cowl pattern is a free crochet pattern at Nana’s Crafty Home! The Mesa Sunset Crochet Bandana Cowl works up so quickly with just one ball of yarn – perfect addition to your fall wardrobe!
I just love the Linen Stitch aka Moss or Granite Stitch – I have several previous designs made with this crochet stitch the Flower Meadow Scarf & Flower Meadow Blanket as well as the Ferris Wheel Granny Square Hat. This is very simple, beginner friendly stitch that utilizes just single crochet and chains to create a lovely and elegant fabric – so versatile, too!
The complete video tutorial is now available! I also have the Moss/Linen stitch Tutorial available for you to check out now! Remember to subscribe to my YouTube Channel so you never miss a new video.
The Mesa Sunset Cowl is worked from the bottom of the triangle up utilizing increases on both sides to create a triangle shape for several rows and then when we get to the size desired, stop increasing. Then the cowl edges are folded together and seamed to create a bandana style cowl.
And I don’t know about you but I absolutely LOVE bandana style cowls – no falling off and so easy to style! Just throw on and go about your day! I seem to be scarf challenged and am forever readjusting scarves throughout the day – such a pain!
I absolutely love the yarn I used for this Bandana cowl as well – Lion Brand Ferris Wheel yarn.* Ferris Wheel yarn is a lightweight, self-striping roving yarn with a subtle ombre effect. I chose the Cherry on Top color way in shades of peach, marigold, taupe, pomegranate and raspberry – all the bright and lovely shades of a bright and glorious sunset!
