Kruška (/krûʃka/) is a Croatian word for “pear”, which was my inspiration for this cowl, and this delicious fruit is reflected in this design in many ways: from the yellow-brownish shade of the yarn, to the pear-shape construction (the cowl is narrower at the top and gets wider towards the bottom), to the herringbone stitch pattern which immediately brings to mind those yummy Hasselback-sliced pear tarts.
The instructions are written for three sizes (Small, Medium, and Large) which use 2 (3, 4) skeins of Manos del Uruguay Alegría Grande. The stitch pattern uses regular single crochet stitches worked in an unusual way.
Happy crocheting!
