Bethany’s Millie Crochet Cowl Project

Bethany’s Millie Crochet Cowl Project

Made by: Bethany Johnson (beshjohnson)

Pattern: Millie Cowl Crochet Pattern by Kristin Omdahl

Yarn: Be So Easy Yarn in color Pine Green

Made with Be So Easy yarn. I believe it is called pine green. I really enjoyed making it!

Note: Be So Easy Yarn is discontinued. Here are a few alternative #5 bulky weight yarn substitution ideas:

Knit Picks:

Brava Bulky: #5 bulky weight 100% premium acrylic; 136 yds per 100 gms; suggested needle size US 10-11. I think the drape and weight of this yarn would be comparable to Be So Easy Yarn. It comes in 29 colors and retails for $3.49 per skein.

Mary Maxim:

Caron O’Go Yarn: #5 bulky weight 100% acrylic self striping yarn; 228 yds per 6.4 oz ring; suggested needle size US 10. I think the drape and weight of this yarn would be comparable to Be So Easy Yarn. And I think the color striping would be comparable to Be So Vivid Yarn, too.
