Inspired by the quaint charm of the picturesque village of Dalton, this cosy cowl wraps you in warmth, perfect for crisp days spent exploring quiet country lanes or sipping tea by the fire.

The textured herringbone half treble crochet stitch creates a beautiful diagonal pattern, reminiscent of winding village streets and rustic landscapes.

With simple stitches and striking texture worked in soft aran weight yarn, the Dalton Cowl is an enjoyable and rewarding project for beginner crocheters.
