With Christmas getting closer, you need quick and easy gifts you can whip up for family members and friends. The November Scarf is the perfect accessory for your gift-giving quandary: it works up very quickly, it looks chic and elegant, and it pairs with a winter coat or a dressy top!

This crochet pattern is worked first from the bottom up in rounds and then in rows on the opposite side of the foundation chain. The classy ribbing of the collar is crocheted using simple front post stitches, and the lace at the top is a mixture of sc, hdc, and dc. The top of the scarf can be turned up to cover the chin, or it can be folded down like a turtleneck. All together, this cowl crochet pattern is a great addition to your pattern library as you work up Christmas gifts and prepare for winter’s colder weather!
