Crochet Jewelry: Free Loopy Necklace/cowl Pattern

Are you a jewelry kind of lady? Crochet jewelry is super fun and quick to make; I designed this crochet cowl/necklace using a beautiful technique.

This cute cowl, which doubles as a necklace, is a stylish way to make a quick make that surprisingly works up quickly. I particularly love that this piece is easy to customize to a cowl, and you can also leave it as a necklace.
