BERNAT COWL AND HAT SET

If you’re looking to crochet a cowl and hat set using Bernat yarn, here’s a simple pattern to get you started:

Materials:

• Bernat yarn (any weight and color of your choice)
• Crochet hook suitable for your yarn weight
• Yarn needle
• Scissors

Cowl Instructions:

1. Start by making a slip knot and chaining a multiple of stitches that will fit comfortably around your neck. A typical width is around 60-80 chains.
2. Join the last chain to the first chain with a slip stitch, being careful not to twist the chain.
3. Chain 2 (acts as the first half double crochet) and then make a half double crochet into each stitch around.
4. Repeat the previous round until your cowl reaches the desired height. You can make it as short or as long as you like.
5. Once you’re satisfied with the height, fasten off your yarn, leaving a long tail for sewing the ends together.
6. Thread the yarn tail onto a yarn needle and sew the ends of the cowl together to form a continuous loop.
7. Weave in any loose ends with the yarn needle.
8. Your crochet cowl is now complete!

Hat Instructions:

1. Start by making a magic ring.
2. Chain 2 (acts as the first half double crochet) and then make 9 half double crochets into the magic ring.
3. Pull the yarn tail to tighten the ring and join with a slip stitch to the top of the beginning chain-2.
4. Chain 2 and then make 2 half double crochets into each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the beginning chain-2. (Total stitches: 20)
5. Chain 2 and then make 1 half double crochet into the same stitch. Make 2 half double crochets into the next stitch. Repeat this pattern (1 half double crochet, 2 half double crochets) until the end of the round. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the beginning chain-2. (Total stitches: 30)
6. Chain 2 and then make 1 half double crochet into each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the beginning chain-2. (Total stitches: 30)
7. Repeat step 6 until your hat reaches the desired height. You can make it as short or as slouchy as you like.
8. Once you’re satisfied with the height, fasten off your yarn, leaving a long tail.
9. Thread the yarn tail onto a yarn needle and weave it through the stitches of the last round, pulling tight to close the top of the hat.
10. Sew the remaining opening of the hat closed using the yarn needle.
11. Weave in any loose ends with the yarn needle.
12. Your crochet hat is now complete!
