This project is worked flat in rows before being seamed into a cowl. To finish we work around both the bottom and top edge. This project is easy to crochet. If you do not have Aran weight yarn please feel free to substitute a medium weight yarn - gauge is not imperative for this project. The stitch multiple is 4. This is a very simple heart stitch made up of puff stitches and chains :) Perfect to use for this cowl or even for larger projects like blankets or wraps.

Flying Geese Hooded Cowl
The inspiration behind this pattern was Amy Johnson, a pioneering English aviatrix. Amy set many flight records in the 1930s, and rose to the ranks of First Officer in the Air Transport Auxiliary during World War II. She died in a crash in 1941 under disputed circumstances during a mission and her body was never recovered. There is a very iconic photo of Amy with a scrumptious collar so I wanted to create a hooded cowl that could keep you extra warm. (You can find more great pictures on my Amy Johnson Pinterest board.) The post stitch pattern creates upturned arrows that mimic the flying geese quilting pattern. The bulky yarn adds an extra layer of protection against harsh winds.
