Free #Crochet Pattern: Ups and Downs Cowl! The Ups and Downs Slouchy Beanie and Fingerless Gloves Set were super fun to make – and many of you agreed! And then you asked for a matching cowl… and I was more than happy to oblige. I changed out the yarn and the closure for a slightly different look – but I think you’ll like it! Of course, you can make your own sets as matchy as you like. I love the way some of you have played with color in the hats.

Learn to read crochet patterns The key element in learning to read crochet patterns is understanding the writing style, which includes the crochet abbreviations and symbols included for your convenience at the end of this article. It's not necessary to learn the abbreviations and symbols all at once, but refer to the lists as you find these terms listed in your crochet patterns. Some things to remember when reading crochet patterns: Crochet patterns are worked in either rows or rounds (rnds). To most beginners, a pattern written in standard crochet abbreviations looks like a foreign language. Written in standard crochet abbreviations, row 1 looks like this: Row 1: With size H hook, ch 15, sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across, turn. (14 sc) Now, written in standard English, row 1 looks like this: Row 1: Using a size H crochet hook, make 15 chain stitches, single crochet in the second chain stitch from the hook and in each chain stitch across, turn. After completing row 1, proceed to row 2. Abbreviations Symbols 1.

My Grand Mother Burhoe & My Great Aunt Marjorie McCoubrey taught me how to knit when I was a little girl...When I use to go to my Aunt Marjorie's house I would stay over night she live in the high rise across from market square & we would knit & look out her window & watch the boats...Some times we would go out on the board walk...Then we had our walks to Market Square, we would go in all the little shops & look at all the ornaments & novelties...Some times we would buy something & get a piece of fudge at the fudge stand in the center of market square...
