Chunky Button Cowl Crochet Pattern

The other day I realized I hadn't crocheted a single scarf since last year! This was obviously much too long ago, so I decided to do something about it, and got my crochet hook out.

After multiple days of trial and error I finally created a new scarf!

So, I'm very proud and happy to present my newest scarf, the Chunky Button Cowl!

I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

What You'll Need
10.00mm Crochet Hook
3 Colours of 150g 8ply {DK} Yarn ~OR~ Bulky Yarn

Scissors

Tapestry/Wool Needle

4 x 4cm {1.6 Inches} Button

Finished Size:

Roughly 40 inches around and 16 inches wide.

{Note: This all depends on how loosely or tightly you crochet.}

Start of by taking your cream yarn and 10.00mm crochet hook and make a Slip Knot, then crochet 80 Chains with 2 strands of yarn. {You'll continue using 2 strands of yarn for this entire project. But, if you'd like to use Bulky yarn instead of 8ply yarn, you only need to use 1 strand of yarn}

Row 1~ Chain 2, skip 2 chains from your hook, then crochet Half Double Crochets all across into every chain.
Row 2 - 5~ Chain 2, Half Double Crochets into every stitch across.
Row 6 - 10~ Change to your blue yarn, then Chain 2 and Half Double Crochets into every stitch across.
Row 11 - 15~ Change to your maroon yarn, then Chain 2 and Half Double Crochets into every stitch across.
Row 16 - 20~ Change to your cream yarn, then Chain 2 and Half Double Crochets into every stitch across.
Row 21 - 25~ Change to your blue yarn, then Chain 2 and Half Double Crochets into every stitch across.
Row 26 - 30~ Change to your maroon yarn, then Chain 2 and Half Double Crochets into every stitch across.
When you've completed all the rows, connect the two ends of the scarf together to create a circle {thus a circle scarf} and Slip Stitch them together.
Fasten off, and weave in ends.
