Coffee Bean Cowl – Free Crochet Pattern

Welcome to the 2021 Scarf of the Month CAL!

For my April contribution, I have this beautiful cowl that I made with Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice yarn. It has a great ribbed texture at the top with a baby bean stitch pattern on the bottom. This cowl is great to wear under a warm coat or even a light jacket. Next week I will share the free pattern for the matching hat as well! Scroll down to check out the FREE crochet pattern for the Coffee Bean Cowl. And for 24 hours only, get a FREE PDF version of this pattern from my Ravelry shop! I hope you enjoy it! Happy Crocheting!
