However, if texture is what you really desire in a rectangle scarf, then this Celtic ropework-inspired pattern will be yopur thing. Overall, the twin lines of braided ropes give it a great depth of character. Indeed, the very strong texture will be a great accent for a plain black overcoat or heavy blazer. That said, it would also work very well with a smooth sweater.

TagsOne Hour Braided Scarf/Cowl
This bold, trendy braided scarf is sure to be a hit this Christmas….and it takes only one hour (or less!) to make. Both a knit and a crochet version of this free scarf pattern are available…and they're nearly identical! Instructions for either a cowl style scarf or the longer braided scarf you see in blue are also included. Enjoy the video tutorial which will walk you through this project step by step.
Celtic Winters Cowl
The celtic weave stitch is so beautiful I can hardly stand it, and once you get started its actually a pretty simple repeat! And my favorite part about it with this project is that it really shows off my favorite qualities of the Scarfie yarn. The gradient of colors shows off the texture of the stitches, and the stitches themselves are as light and fluffy as clouds! This pattern will show you how to make a beautiful cowl using just one skein of Scarfie yarn.
Crochet Rectangle Shawl Pattern
This is a crochet rectangle shawl perfect for autumn. Simple to crochet yet elegant in design, this wrap uses basic stitches to create a beautiful, open texture.
The pattern repeats draw the eye into the beautiful shells and long, detailed lines. A perfect accent piece for any outfit and a gorgeous way to stay warm on cool autumn nights.
Twisted Strands Wrap
Jacob’s ladder crochet is used in the Twisted Strands Wrap to add texture and show off the lovely Cascade 220 Superwash Wave yarn. It has rounded ends finished off with a long braided tassel. This wrap is a wonderful way to dress up and warm up your outfit. Though this pattern is listed as intermediate, a confident beginner could complete it.
