Black Cowl

 This black cowl was crocheted using single and double crochet with a K10.5/6.50 mm hook. To be honest, I had trouble with connecting the ring.  It would always end up twisting on me!  I read several patterns, which were VERY VERY clear not to twist the chain when connecting the end of the chain to the first chain with slip stitch. Even though I was aware, I still managed to find a slight twist after I finished a row! It was pretty obvious that I was doing something wrong-- again and again!  Finally, after putting it away  and giving it a rest, I came back to work on it and FINALLY the ring came out straight!   It fits snug to the face and covers the neck to keep the wind out.  It definitely is a wonderful accessory to have during the winter!  I'm hoping to make a looser one with a hood as my next project!
