Free Pattern – The Mushin Cowl
ByCool weather is coming; just last night in Toronto it was downright chilly. Time to stock up on some fall accessories! Mushin is a Japanese term frequently used in Martial Arts training that means ‘Without Mind’. It’s totally appropriate because this is completely the easiest, most mindless project for instant gratification.
I worked this up over a day (no kidding) just carrying it around wherever I went. No TV show or conversation, however complex, will make you err on this simple, sweet crochet project. The simple pattern is great for both solid yarns or that special skein of variegated that you love, but don’t know what to do with ;)
Materials:
- 4 mm crochet hook
- 335 yards of sport weight yarn
- Sample is using one skein of Malabrigo’s ‘Arroyo’
- in Colourway ‘Jupiter’
- Tapestry needle for weaving in your ends
Finished dimensions:
When lying flat: 12.25 inches wide and 13.25 inches tall.
