Snug as a bug

Marjan Gouda

“Designing the pattern for this cowl was a real challenge for me, as I wanted to really do the colours and softness of the yarn justice within the design. To achieve this, I chose a cross stitch and double crochet stitch pattern to alternate both colours. The texture is created by these crochet stitches and the double crochet stitches, worked in the back loops only.” You can find more of Marjan’s crochet patterns on
