Harper Chunky Cowl

Extra texture alert! This chunky cowl knitting pattern is SO GOOD and is perfect for both beginner and experienced knitters alike! It’s incredibly chunky and warm, making it an essential accessory for chilly days. The honeycomb brioche stitch is one of my all-time favorites, and it creates a stunning visual texture that’s sure to impress. Featuring a simple four-row repeat, this pattern produces a double-thick, squishy design that is not only super chic but also highly functional. Plus, you get the opportunity to use those beautiful buttons you've been saving—I know you have them!

For this project, I selected reclaimed wood buttons sourced from Etsy, and they add a fabulous touch to the finished piece. One of the best features of this versatile cowl is that you can wear it buttoned to the front or the side, allowing you to express your style in multiple ways. It looks fantastic from all angles, and we could all use options in our wardrobes!

This delightful cowl is knit flat using a size #6 (or #7) yarn and US 15 (10 mm) needles, making it a quick and satisfying project. Don't worry if you're new to knitting; all stitches are clearly explained in the pattern, and I’ve included a handy video reference for the brioche stitch to guide you along the way. Whether you're treating yourself or crafting a thoughtful gift for a loved one, this chunky honeycomb brioche cowl is a must-knit project that will keep you warm and stylish all season long!
