Crochet: Cowl
This pattern is simple to follow (it uses just single crochet, double crochet, and chain stitches) and makes a versatile garment that can be used as a cowl or a shawl. Wear it long as a cowl under your coat, and when you come inside and need a little extra warmth, pull it down over your shoulders to stay nice and cozy.
