Put your hook into the wind with this Crochet Griddle Stitch Infinity Cowl designed by Mikey from The Crochet Crowd. Using Red Heart Roll With It Melange in colour called Gossip. You will use about 80% of the ball.
The pattern says Crinkle Stitch but this is actually the Griddle Stitch.
The cowl is 15" in diameter by 8" wide, but you could have made it more wide if you wanted. If you want to change the size, just chain in even numbers.
The pattern consists of the crochet crinkle stitch, which means there is a repeat of two stitches in a row. The first stitch is single crochet, and the next is double crochet. When you do the next round, the single crochet is over the double crochet, and the double crochet goes into the single crochet.
This type of stitch turns it more into fabric than the typical railway tracks of crochet.
