Rose Lace Cowl

This lacy cowl is nice for spring, with the sweet lace and the bright color. 

I used a little over one skein of Simply Soft Light in Bubble Gum with a G hook. 

Ch 273, join, without turning with a sl st. 

Row 1: ch 2, *sk next ch, sc in next ch, ch 1; rep from * to end across, join with sl st in 1st ch of beg ch 2

Row 2: ch 1, *sc in next ch 1 sp, ch 1; rep from * to end across, join with sl st in beg ch 1

Row 3: ch 2, *sc in next ch 1 sp, ch 1; rep from * to end across, join with sl st in 1st ch of beg ch 2

Rep rows 2 and 3 until your cowl is the desired width. For me, I repeated rows 2-3 until I finished the first skein, and then I started on the second. 

Edging:

Row 1: ch 1, sc in every sc and ch 1 sp around, join to beg ch 1 with sl st

Row 2: ch 1, sc in next sc, * ch 4, sk 2 sc, sc in next sc; rep from * to end around to last 2 sc, ch 4, join in beg ch 1 with sl st

Row 3: sl st to ch 4 sp, ch 3 (counts as dc), (ch 2, dc, ch 4, sl st in 1st ch of ch 4, ch 1, dc, ch 2, dc) in next ch 4 sp, * sk next ch 4 sp, (dc, ch 2, dc, ch 4, sl st in 1st ch of ch 4, ch 1, dc, ch 2, dc) in next ch 4 sp; rep from * to end across, sk next ch 4 sp, join to 1st ch of beg ch 3 with sl st

Fasten off, and weave in ends. 

I did not block this because it's acrylic and acrylic typically doesn't block all that well, but if you're using a different type of yarn, like a wool blend, you could definitely block it go open the lace and define the points of the edging more. 

My finished cowl is 7"x54". 

I love the effect this simple lacy edging has on the scarf. 

Enjoy!
