District 12 Cowl Wrap Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Thick & Quick® GAUGE: 7 sts = about 4 in. (10 cm) in pattern. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is based on what the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles. Making a Gauge Swatch STITCH EXPLANATION: Popcorn 5 dc all in indicated st, remove hook, insert hook into 1st dc (from front to back), place free loop back on hook and pull through 1st dc. NOTES: 1. Cowl and Wrap are worked separately the sewn together. 2. Cowl is worked in rnds. Wrap is worked back and forth in rows. 3. Only 2 balls of yarn are required if only making Cowl. COWL Ch 60.

Working through back loops only, dc in each st across working last dc in top of turning ch. Rep Row 2 until piece measures about 14 in. (35.5 cm) long. Fasten off. FINISHING Place a marker anywhere on one edge of Cowl. Place a 2nd marker on the same edge about 12 in. (30.5 cm) from the first marker. Sew one short edge of Wrap to WS of Cowl, gathering the edge of the wrap to fit the 12 in. (30.5 cm) edge of the cowl between the markers. Remove markers. Note: A helper will make the next part of finishing easier. Try on Cowl, with Wrap in front. Wrap the other end of the Wrap around to your back, adjusting to fit, and pin to edge of cowl. Take off Cowl and sew end. Weave in ends.   ABBREVIATIONS / REFERENCES Click for explanation and illustration beg = begin(s)(ning) ch(s) = chain(s) dc = double crochet hdc = half double crochet rep = repeat(s)(ing) rnd(s) = round(s) sc = single crochet sk = skip sl st = slip stitch st(s) = stitch(es) WS = wrong side     Learn to Crochet Instructions:  http://www.lionbrand.com/learnToCrochet.html
