This is a super cozy circle cowl scarf made with a (5) chunky/ bulky yarn in a neutral colour and it is perfect for fall and winter weather when you need protection from the cold.

I wanted to make this a stylish moss stitch design cowl tto allow beginners to make something special to wear. Often as a beginner to crochet it is hard to find a simple pattern that you can make up and have as an accessory you can wear with pride. This free crochet cowl pattern is one of those patterns. Using the 8mm hook allows the stitches to create a cowl with a soft drape that make this scarf super cozy.
