Convertible Free Crochet Headband / Cowl Pattern

Share

Introducing a two-in-one cowlband – it’s a headband or it’s a cowl! The Everly Headband Cowl adjust to your moods and temperature and it whips up in just about an hour!

I love hiking and being outdoors, but in the beautiful state of Colorado, you just never know when the weather is going to turn. So, when I leave the house, I always tuck a little headband in my pocket and this one is my new favorite!

It’s so simple to make that you can pack a skein of yarn in your bag and work on it anywhere…add your favorite flower or buttons and it’s good to go!
