Rustic Chunky Button Cowl – Free Crochet Pattern

Welcome to the Scarf of the Month Club!

We have 3 new gorgeous scarf/cowl patterns for you for the month of July!

If you are new to the Scarf of the Month Club, it is a series of free scarf/cowl patterns that are created by The Stitchin’ Mommy (me!) and Oombawka Design. Every month, Rhondda and I will each share one free crochet pattern for a scarf, infinity scarf, or cowl/neckwarmer, through December 2016. Plus, as a bonus, we have some amazing Mystery Designers that will also be providing free scarf patterns. By December, you will have 36 scarf/cowl patterns to choose from to make as gifts or create for yourself!

If you have already started making the patterns in this series, don’t forget to share your progress with us by adding Ravelry Project Pages for the scarves you make! Each pattern post will include a specific pattern link to Ravelry so you can add your own project pages!

We would also love to see your projects on Instagram! Tag us on Instagram at @thestitchinmommy and/or @oombawkadesign and use the hashtag #ScarfoftheMonthClub to share your progress with us!

Also, check out our Facebook Group, Crochet With Us where can share your progress, ask questions, and get help!

• There are no button holes needed for the cowl because of the nature of the stitches. You can button anywhere along the cowl through the dc sts.
