Coastal Waves Cowl – A Free Crochet Pattern

I am so excited for the cooler weather! Bring on Fall!

The Coastal Waves Cowl reminds me of waves in the ocean, and I can’t wait to share this pattern with you!
I loved using the wave stitch in the Coastal Waves Coaster and I decided to make a cowl and beanie set.

Let’s keep in touch!

You can find me on Instagram, facebook, Ravelry and Pinterest!
