Directions
This Shoulder cozy is easy to make. Although it looks kind of complicated, this is one of the easiest shoulder cozy you will ever crochet. Plus you will learn a super easy way of joining a long chain into a ring without it getting twisted. The pattern uses only basic crochet stitches.

This scarf is crochet as a circle. To determine how long your starting chain should be, measure the diameter of your upper chest with your arms by your side and leave a little wiggle room.

The pattern was made with Red Heart Unforgettable
Absolutely loving this yarn! The colours are amazing and it is perfect to work with!

For this top M size you will need 1 skein of Red Heart Unforgettable: 100% akryl, 100g/250m

For this pattern you will need 5 and 3 mm hooks, yarn needle, one button.

Difficulty Level: Level 1 – Easy, for beginners

US crochet term:
SlSt – slip stitch
CH/s – chain/s
SC – simple crochet
DC - double crochet
SK - skip
T - turn
ST/s - stitch(es)
REP - repeat

Pattern Notes
1)     Before you start take a measurement. I started with 120 chains. Chain until you reach the measurement taken.
2)     The direction shown are for M size but can be easily converted into bigger size or smaller size – just measure your starting chain around your shoulders if it fits snuggly then you can use this chain amount for your size.
3)     A Ch 3 at beg of the row counts as dc throughout, a ch 2 at the beg row counts as hdc throughout, and a ch 1 at beg of row counts as sc throughout
4) Finish each round with sl st
5) TO WEAR Pull over head with twist at front and adjust top to cover shoulders as desired OR, pull down to waist with seam at center back, then pull the front of circle up over your head. Adjust piece to fit and fold back collar.

The pattern:
Foundation Chainless Double Crochet
For this shoulder shawl is important not to have tight foundation chain. We need stretchy chain row - this row will be in the middle of the shawl.
How I love to start with the Foundation Chainless Crochet! And the really great part about it, is that you create a foundation chain and first row of crochets all at once!
This technique will give you an elastic, stretchy row.

Pick up the 5mm hook and let’s make a Double Crochet Chainless Foundation = 120 dc.
Follow Step By Step:
Begin with a slip knot on your crochet hook, then chain two.
Insert your hook into the V of the first chain stitch.
Yarn over and pull up loop (3 loops on hook
Yarn over and draw through 1 loop (1 chain made)
Yarn over and draw through 2 loops.
2 times—1 foundation double crochet with chain at bottom
Continue Working.
Start each repeating by inserting your hook into the foundation chain made previously. This will be the “V” shaped stitch on the left. When starting each repeating, insert your hook through these 2 yarns. Then repeat steps, for each stitch you want to create.
Do not slip stitch.

Make Mobius Twist = take the left side of your work (the side where the first dc is) being careful there are no twists, bring ends together and twist it down towards you, rotating the foundation chain from the bottom to the top. You will now treat the bottom loops of the foundation chain equal to top, “working” loops.

Round 2: sl st with the 1st ch, ch3 (counts as first dc), ch1, sk 1, rep: * 1dc in next st, ch1, sk1 across*, until the end of the round, sl st with the 3rd ch from beg
Your work will look like it has 2 new rows completed around the foundation chain, but really it is 1 continuous round.

Round 3: ch3 (counts as first dc, dc in each st across (including all ch1 sp) until you reach the ch3, sl st with the 3rd ch from beg (240 dc)

Rounds 4-15: Repeat Round 2 and Round 3, you can make less or more rounds until you reach your desired length.

I used up 1 ball of yarn for my shoulder cozy – it is long enough to make a shawl, a shoulder shrug or a hood. Fasten off and hide all loose tails.

You are doing great! Only a flower as a decoration left and your wonderful shoulder cozy is ready to wear!

Flower pattern

Make a magic circle.
Sc into the circle + ch20, repeat 45x (sc into the circle + ch20) sl st, dont fasten off, leave a long tail
Pick up a yarn needle
Join the button
Fasten off, hide loose tail
