Introduction
Hello everyone! It is now the second to last day of my 10 days of giving Thanksgiving pattern blowout and I know I’ve said this the last few but I still can not believe how fast this is going.
Today I have the matching men’s crochet face warmer to yesterday’s crochet hat pattern. (you can find the hat pattern here https://crochetwithkim.com/Crunch-time-hat)
I absolutely love the way the crunch stitch worked up in these patterns. It made such a nice simple crochet ribbing that still felt masculine. If you’re ever trying to decide a stitch to use for the men in your family I highly suggest this one.

Let’s get hooking!
Supplies
5.5mm crochet hook. I use the clover amour 5.5mm you can find it here https://amzn.to/32d4atZ
1 Skein Red Heart Super Saver blue
1 Skein Mainstays black (You can use any weight 4 yarn these are just the brands I used.)
You can also sub Ice Yarns Saver yarn if you prefer ordering online http://bit.ly/2uRmoEP
Darning needle
Scissors
Abbreviations
Ch- Chain
Sc- single crochet
Slst- Slip stitch
Hdc- Half double crochet
Notes
The slst made in the row will need to be stitched loose enough so that you can work into them in the following row.
This cowl can be made in any size as long as you have an even number of stitches
If you don’t know the foundation stitches you can work a base chain of the total number of stitches you need plus one. You will work into the second ch from hook.

Before we go…
I hope you all enjoyed today’s pattern I really enjoyed learning this new stitch, and I hope you all had a good time working it into a project with me!
Like I said earlier this is my second to last day of the 10 days of giving pattern blowout. I will be posting every Friday like normal again once this is done.
If you enjoyed the patterns released during this event please sign up for my newsletter. I will be sending one out biweekly that will include crochet tips, news, and free PDF versions of my patterns!
Like all the other posts I would again like to point out that this is the 10 days of giving pattern blowout and I really urge you to look into local charities. With the winter months being in swing now shelters, and schools need your items more than ever. However, even if you can’t make anything this year a look through your old creations could really help someone. If you don’t have shelters in your area the I am not lost scarf project is fantastic and has a lot of potentials to do good.

Once again, I hope you all enjoyed today’s pattern, and as always, happy hooking.
