Trendy Colorful Crochet Cowls
Crochet Cowls are definitely a must have clothing once the summer is over. The winds become strong and cold so cowls stay perfectly on place and they are keeping you warm. You can treat them more like an accessory – they can be small but with some some fancy elements.
You can also use them just for its purpose – because it’s cold. But either way they always complete your outfit. This is why there are a lot of designs and shapes that you can make to match a cowl with the particular outfit. Don’t be afraid of colors – autumn loves them! Take a look at examples below to check the current trends and search for links to free patterns under the pictures.

1. Silver Lining Capelet Free Crochet Pattern
Ponchos are very comfortable and elegant, but sometimes can be a little unpractical. This one will do great on a daily basis, because it’s a little shorter than a classic poncho, and that’s why it won’t bother you in doing whatever you need to do – by that I mean, that it won’t get dirty when you’ll wash your dishes, or eat a soup.

A colorful and intriguing addition to any outfit.
