Mad about Cowls

Cowls are just all over the place this winter! I love them. They look cozy and yet fashionable at the same time. Plus, there are so many different styles out there that can go with just about any outfit you put together.

I've been working on crocheting a cowl for myself, but it's been so long since I last crocheted so it's taking me a while. In the meantime, I whipped one up using some soft faux-fur fabric that I had laying around.


I made it using a tutorial I found online (which of course I can't find now...). But basically it's just a long tube of fabric sewn in a circle. It's fur on both sides, for the ultimate in coziness.

If you're looking for a cowl that's already been made, I would recommend these adorable infinity cowls made by GussySews. She has several colors, at very affordable prices! I love the Moss Envy color shown below:


Or, if you are awesome with a crocheting needle, you could try your hand at making one yourself! I would recommend this pattern shown below, available at Patterns by Marianne on Etsy.


Have you jumped on the cowl train yet? Are you like me and are sure to amass an entire wardrobe of them by the time Spring has arrived?
