Product Details

This cowl was inspired by Aberdeen, Scotland. Known as the “Granite City”, Aberdeen is built from granite and its textured buildings twinkle in the sun. This stylish scarf pattern uses a chain and double crochet combination, known as granite stitch (also known as moss stitch, linen stitch or tweed stitch).

This pattern is suitable for improving beginners who want to build their confidence by completing a more challenging pattern. Both UK and US versions of the pattern are included.

The scarf has a half twist, like a Möbius strip, and each row adds to both the top and bottom of the scarf. The first rows you complete end up in the centre of the scarf and it grows outwards in both directions. Take this into account if using stripes and when planning your colour usage. We will start this project using a “foundation double crochet row” (US foundation single crochet row) which creates the foundation chain and the first row in one go.

The file contains versions of the pattern in both US and UK.
