Crocheted Moebius Cowl Using Hand Maiden Maiden Hair

The Design

“Simplicity with a twist.”

The stitch is easy, the construction clever—this project is so much fun! The Crocheted Moebius Cowl is worked from the center band outward, and each round adds stitches to both the top and bottom edges of the cowl. So working one round is really like working two! This is thanks to the addition of a simple half twist that creates the miraculous, fascinating, one-edged moebius shape!

The long, soft washes of color in Handmaiden’s Maiden Hair are spellbinding in the never-ending loop of the Crocheted Moebius Cowl. With its gently twisted strands of glowing silk and mohair, Maiden Hair gives this cowl amazing drape, warmth, and softness.
