I love learning a new stitch and then making up a pattern to go with it. I also like when the right type of yarn, with the right size hook, can make the stitch turn out perfectly. This mixed cluster stitch worked great for a cowl.

MATERIALS

• Lion Brand Yarn Lions Pride Woolspun yarn. It is a size 5 Bulky weight yarn, 80% acrylic and 20% wool. 3.5 oz/100g. The weight makes a difference. Your stitches will not look the same with a smaller weight yarn.
• I used an 8.00 “L” size hook, but depending on how loose or tight you personally crochet, you will want to go up or down a size.
