Bastet crochet cowl







Here's my new crochet design



This multicolored cowl is crocheted with a houndstooth stitch and picot edging
It’s easy to make and it can be worn in several different ways;



Short or double loop, close around your neck or longer like an infinity scarf.
But you can also wear it wrapped around your head as a headband.



Bastet is the famous Cat Goddess of the ancient Egyptians



As the name implies the Bastet Cowl is a warm enveloping collar 
like that worn by the Egyptian feline goddess after whom it is named.




It uses 165g organic 4-ply Poll Dorset yarn from Renaissance Dyeing
in five different shades naturally dyed with weld, madder, cochineal, indigo, acorn cups and log-wood.
