Lion Brand has come out with a new yarn that is full of texture and color! Appropriately named Textures®, this yarn is a worsted-weight, tightly twisted, self-striping boucle yarn. It’s extremely soft to the touch and I’m going nuts over the variegated color combos! See all the colors HERE.
When I first received a sample of this yarn (Thanks Lion Brand!), I thought about making a baby blanket. Single crochet stitches proved to be a bit difficult though. This yarn is a bit similar to fun fur. It’s hard to see your stitches… so I had a second idea, a loose cowl! I came across this NET SCOWL pattern by Kate Dixon on Ravelry (It’s a free download!) and knew it was going to be perfect! I used one whole skein of the Lion Brand Textures yarn in Arctic Sky. It was so easy to work up and I love the versatility of the cowl. So many different ways you can wear it! Off the shoulder, bunched up around the neck, hanging down, and more. I added a button to the spot where I joined the corners (full tutorial on joining is included in the free pattern link above). You could absolutely make the cowl longer by using two skeins. The best part is, you can’t screw this one up! I made a bunch of mistakes while crocheting this (a missed stitch here and there) but you can’t see any errors! The texture of the yarn and nature of the pattern hid all of the little mishaps that might happen.
A quick project like this is perfect for holiday gifts! And with so many color options, each one will be one of a kind!
More information about the yarn and purchasing options are available on the Lion Brand Yarn website.

Just found your site yesterday and I can’t keep track of all the projects I want to do. I’m two eyes into a minion hat, did a fishtail braid on my daughter’s hair this morning, and am totally going to make this cowl next! Thank you for the patterns, inspiration, and beautiful website! Have a wonderful weekend!!
Hi, this looks fab but it seems this yarn isn’t available here in the UK. Do you know of a substitute that would work as well? Thanks x
She never replies.
try amazon or the yarns web site may help in getting it
Quick question – the pattern you reference shows instructions that indicate this cowl is a rectangle that is attached at the short ends. Looking at the RCM pictures here, it seems that yours is more of a triangle? Can you confirm whether you followed the Net Cowl pattern precisely or if you deviated to make it more of a triangle? Also, her pattern indicates a sport weight w/6mm hook, while this yarn is worsted weight. Which hook size did you use?
My question is the same as Victoria’s the pattern is different than the triangle version that I am needing the pattern for could you please send me the pattern to the RCM picture. Thank you

This pattern does NOT agree with the authors description. She says to use 200 meters of sport weight yarn and a 6 mm hook.
Textures is 136 meters of worsted weight yarn, and calls for a 5.5 mm hook (close enough).
Please let us know exactly what the parameters are before posting instructions. Can you clarify please?
Thanks much.
One more question: What are the final dimensions of the rectangle (before folding)?
very nice. thank yo
