There is no reason your first crochet project can’t be a wearable fashion accessory! Simple repeats of two stitch patterns give sophisticated texture, and color if you choose, to this scarf or cowl.

A true beginner’s pattern … instruction is given without abbreviations and then shown in abbreviated form as well, to aid in learning to read a simple pattern.

Color chart, photos, and clearly written text will help you create a lovely “first project” and inspire you to create your own color and texture combinations.
