Hats hats and more hats!
I love hats & scarfs of all types…
I like to wear hats and cowls as well.
I love and enjoy making hats for my children and their friends. They ask for many through the winter, different colors and styles. Seeing their faces when the hats are done makes it more enjoyable to make.
hooded scarfs, my sister likes cowls so I am working on both
my crochet needles are my favorite accessory. Without them I wouldn’t have my scarf, mittens, shrug, or hat to keep me warm.
I love to make scarves and cowls. my two year old runs around with mine all the time!
love to make snuggly warm lapghans to cover up with on cold winter evenings
Wool mittens and Minion hats. I work at an elementary school and when folks found out I could make Minion hats, well we had an invasion of Minions. 😉
Scarf I made extra long and extra wide to go under my jacket to protect me from the wind, and keep me warm. Red Heart worked the best.
Hats and scarfs
I love scarves & hats. I also love making hats for the homeless. I make them and my friend gives them out. 🙂
I love making lapghans and crochet throws.
Fingerless gloves…perfect.
I have a pair of mittens made using the afghan stitch so they are double thickness. Great for those really cold New England snow storms we get. Made of wool so they keep my hands warn and DRY when shoveling snow, especially this past winter.
Afghans. I make one for our church bazaar every year, as well as grandchildren and gifts.
Fingerless mitts come in handy inside and outside. I haven’t tried a cowl yet, but there are many beautiful patterns. I make a lot of hats and scarves also. A cowl is on my list before cold weather comes back!
Scarves or cowls here in Florida even in summer where the air conditioning makes shopping or offices too cool.
I can never have too many hats!
Myfavorite item to wear in the cool evening weather is a light weight cardigan that i knitted many years ago.
Crocodile stitch fingerless gloves
Long crocheted coat!
I love knitted and crocheted scarves. I have not yet progressed to glove (other than finger-less). That will be the next passion. I do make LOADS of hats for kids and infants and donate to several charities with my knitting group. We also donate scarves and blankets!
I don’t normally crochet, but I think it would be a throw.
If afghans count as an accessory, then one of them. Otherwise, I like making berets/hats.
fingerless mitts
My favorite cool weather accessory just happens to be cowls. I love that they can be made to match any outfit and really jazz things up while keeping you warm at the same time. Thank you for this opportunity to win this fantastic prize package! I could have alot of fun with this!! 🙂
For windy Colorado, a soft warm ear warmer.
Cowls, scarves and hats. Have been teaching myself to crochet over past couple years and love it. There is no end to people to gift or give them to and so useful in our climate. The Food Bank is one way that I pass them on to people who need them.
Ear warmer. love it and use it all the time with my curly hair
Even though it rarely gets cold enough here I enjoy making hats, so mostly I do them for babies and toddlers.
scarves and cowls rock
Fingerless gloves and cowels!
So far my favorite is a short scarf, crocheted while doing chemo. Thankfully it isn’t cool enough to need a scarf NOW! Thanks for the giveaway.
Definitely fingerless gloves. None of my sweaters are ever long enough to cover my wrists, but I like to still be able to do stuff with my fingers.
throws, hats, cowls, mitts, slippers… new ideas???!
I LOVE cowls! and shawlettes or capelets.
My favorite cool weather crocheted article is a long cowl I made.
I wear it long like a scarf if cool, and wrap it tight around my neck if too cool and can cover my mouth if windy or my hair if it’s raining.
A perfect multipurpose item of clothing!
I make cowls and boot toppers for myself and everybody I know, plus some for others to use as gifts.
Love to knit and/ or crochet cowls, throws, fingerless mitts, scarves, afghans, dish rags, and sweaters. I have yet to make mittens. Think I will attempt it
this Fall. Thank you for the opportunity to win this package.
For all the years I have been knitting / crocheting, my favorite project has always been scarves and cowls. I just love the spark of creativity!
Scarves! Perfect for keeping the chill away!
Hats are my favorite followed by cowls
For me I think I prefer a light weight shawl for evening wear. Be it for sitting outdoors with friends or taking a walk or an evening out. A shawl would be perfect.
Hats are my fave, I’ve always got at least a couple dozen. To keep from having to move to a larger apartment, when I make new, the older get a good cleaning and are added to the charity hats I make. The shelter wants only dark blue or black acrylic rib beanies, but they’ve gotten used to my few colorful additions. Thanks for the giveaway!
Matching cowls and fingerless mittens are my favorite.

I wear cowls ALL the time, including to bed. Beloved Husband breathes down my neck – not so romantic at 4 AM LOL! I made a ginormous one that can double as a hood – beautiful…A girl can never have too many cowls.

I love a cute pair of wristlets for the winter. They leave my fingers and thumbs free, but keep my hands warm. And they stop the cold wind from coming up your sleeves! I have colors for every mood, coat and jacket!
Scarves are my favorite accessory to keep me warm.
I made several hats for my grandchildren and when I wanted to make the same one for my daughter-in-law it was too small. I crocheted several rows, then switched to knitting for several more rows, then back to crochet so it could be turned up. Never did anything like this before, but everyone who saw it wants one just like it. Kind of like a slouch hat! Now would be fun to try a cowl instead of just a scarf.
My favorite crocheted accessory is a small cowl-scarf — it’s light weight, but very comfy and warm on my neck and shoulders!

The first item that came to mind was a soft crazy colored slouch hat, then I thought a fuzzy pair of fingerless gloves would go really nice with the hat followed by the longest scarf I could find. So a perfect matching winter set is what I would want.

I crochet lots of accessories for my children and grandchildren and to date (this year) I have made 8 cowls, currently on my 9th. I know I am not eligible to enter this competition but felt obliged to enter a comment. I enjoy crocheting and trying out new stitches. I sometimes adapt the Afghan colours and stiches for cowls, scarves and mitts.
Hat and scarf
I am just now getting into making and wearing cowls. I also enjoy crocheting jackets, shawls, and hats. Thank you.

Scarves/cowls in every color!!
A simple pair of gloves or finger-less gloves is my favorite option
The first scarf I ever crotched-nice & warm even with the mistakes!
I love crocheted scarves! They can just be an accessory to add a splash of color on top of your coat or jacket. Then when you get cold it can wrap snugly around your neck to keep you warmer. And if it gets cold enough, it is time to wrap your scarf around your head to cover your ears and neck and tuck the ends into your coat to block out the cold!
Shawls, shawls and more shawls!
In California you wouldn’t expect to be pulling out the scarves year round, but it seems that as the weather gets hotter the lower the AC temps go. So I enjoy using my collection of scarves full time. When I’m learning a new stitch or trying out a new type of yarn a scarf is always perfect project to make and then wear.
Scarves and hats!
A warm hat and infinity scarf
I enjoy crocheting hats; many kinds for all ages.
My favorite are afghans that are different types of squares. Kinda like a granny square, but not! I one made an afghan with 66 squares. Each square was a different size and pattern. Lost the pattern and would someday like to find another one!
I would have to declare the Cowl my most necessary. It used to be a scarf, but the cowl, is much more user friendly. It stays on in the wind, keeps ears and head warm, and best of all, it does not fall to the ground or get caught in the door.
I am loving crocheting scarves to keep my nose warm this winter!!!
My favorite is shawls…I can wear them just around my neck, or use them to keep my arms warm.

Wow, where do I start. I love cowls and scarves so much, but a soft blanket is hard to remove on a chilly night. I love the fingerless gloves also. But my favorite is making matching scarves, cowls and hats for my nine grandchildren. They love homemade items from me and it helps with the budget. I also love where creating beautiful things for others takes me, it is a great feeling.

For me, It is a throwback to my adolescence which has made its return to fashion—the poncho! Very fun to wear and perfect for the winter here in Phoenix. It’s not cold enough for a coat. Sometimes a heavy sweater might be desirable, but I find three poncho to work well.
Hats and scarfs for the grandkids
Infinity scarfs and sweaters keep me warm and stylish! Addicted to making scarfs. Going to donate a bunch i made to the city mission
Cowls and longer infinity scarves are my favorite winter accessories! I wear a black coat so I can change my cowl/scarf depending upon my mood or outfit!!
Currently fingerless gloves, but I’ve seen some neat ponchos that could be toasty.
Love cowls especially because I don’t lose them as easily as scarves !

Scarves & hats
Scarves and cowls — love to make them, wear them, and give them as gifts.
I think my favorite is earwarmers, with cowls coming in a close second. If I’m indoors, though, I love to curl up with an afghan.
I prefer a hooded scarf for the really cold weather and I make a lot of shawls for the prayer shawl ministry at church. I have also knitted Christmas stocking for my family and extended family (I don’t have one yet)
Being from Arizona, I don’t need much to keep warm outdoors. But my husband grew up on the beach in California and likes to have our home very cool. So all year round, I can be found with slippers and afghans as I am working.
Putting crocheted slippers on my cold feet, and covering my cold legs with an afghan, is the best feeling.
In the cool weather I love to wear a cowl. It is not as heavy as a scarf but still is nice and and warm and cozy!
I love shawls, the lacier the better!

I just love to crochet anything.
Scarves and shawls.
Cowls are my favorite winter wear. They can double as a hood and keep my neck warm. There are many cowl patterns and you can make easy ones, or intricate ones. They are great for trying out new stitches as they are not as big as a sweater and cowls take less time to knit.
Its hard to pick s favorite but a lightweight shawl is probably it!
Hats & gloves/mittens are do-not-leave-home-without accessories during the winter! I would love to have a homemade cowl that I could wear over my head in place of a stocking hat.
I love a crocheted silk scarf for staying warm indoors and out in the fall and winter months nbc
A crocheted scarf is a nice cool weather accessory for a guy, a cowl would be good for my wife. In the evenings, I like a lap afghan while I crochet.

Hats always seem to muck up my hair, but scarves to wrap around my neck to keep me cuddly warm is what I really like.
I like cowls best. I always get cold even in the summer. A cowl can be light enough to wear any time and large enough to keep me warm year round.
Cowls are a really neat way to improve crochet skills, and make awesome gifts!

Hats and lacy scarves, it doesnt get too cold here. 🙂
I cut my hair last year from a pink fauxhawk to a blond pixie last year so I wouldn’t stick out at my Grandpa’s memorial, and I learned that when the weather turns cold with cropped hair your ears FREEZE, especially on the east cost where the services were. While I have time I’m crocheting a few new slouchy hats and since my twin nephews are obsessed with Cars and Monsters Inc I’m going to get brave and work on some character beanies for them.
I work in the window of the TimHortons where I work, so I made a pair of fingerless mittens to help keep my hands from freezing during our long cold winters! I make many, many winter items but I think these would have to be my favourite!
My infinity scarf that I made for myself a few years ago curtesy of A Felted Button.
Light weight sweaters! It is not so cold here…
My grant square shawl I made my self
My favorite warm accessory is a pair of thick warm slippers I made a short while ago. They really keep the toes nice and warm. I also like making afghans and curling up in them, but I would have to admit that I do not like tucking in all those ends. 🙂 I would love to try making a cowl someday and I think this yarn would be great for it. Thank you for the opportunity to win some!
Scarves! The more colourful the better!
I really don’t have one, I give my work to friends and family and the others in the family do not crochet. I do have a scarf my mom knitted for me that is warm and remi ds me of her. I would love a pair of fingerless gloves so I can work and stay warm or turn music when I sing, but my husband keeps reminding me I get to cold not to include my fingers In The gloves.
I love my cowls/scarves for cooler weather. They brighten up my dark wardrobe.
Socks or slippers! If my feet are warm so it’s the rest of me. One winter vacation I crocheted slippers and hats for everyone in the family while we were away!
My favorite warm accessory is hats. Unfortunately, they are easy to lose, so I always have a reason to make some more.

I’ve crocheted many items over the years, anything from baby blankets, throws, scarves, snowflakes, dishcloths and even wool helmet liners for our U. S. Troops. Plus many more, my list goes on and on. I would love to add cowls to my list!

I really like shawls. While my children are lugging afghans and blankets around, shawls are really nice to have.
I love hats and cowls. I will soon be trying my hand at knitting fingerless gloves to keep in my car for those very cool mornings that will come all to soon. I also enjoy a cozy afghan to wrap myself in on those cold evenings. There’s nothing better for an evening on the sofa watching TV and doing some mindless knitting.
A shoulder wrap to throw on while I am reading in bed.
I ponchos and shawls. Made in different weights and kinds of yarn they work from that first cold snap when the evenings are cool until the temps dip to freezing. I don’t think these items get enough interest considering how versatile they are in a wardrobe.
I love to crochet just about everything and I love the craft, but my favorite thing to do is crochet prayer shawls and give them to people who might just need a “hug”. 🙂
Hats and shrugs. I love to wrap up in my shrug and read or do email.
Some of my favorite things to crochet and wear are scarves, cowls, and shawls. I also like to crochet for friends and church projects. 🙂
My favorite crochet items of all time are shawls. Light weight airy lovely shawls for evening or dress occasions; a nice medium weight,soft as a baby’s bottom. shawl for our cool evenings and nights here in Wisconsin when the weather changes; and a bulky double yarn crochet heavier weight during the winter when the temps in the house often get into the low 60’s and I’m cuddled on the sofa crocheting a shawl for a Christmas gift.

I love cowls because you can change up a plain tan or black jacket by changing your cowl

I love to make wide, extra long cowls that can be wrapped 2-3 times. I really don’t like being cold and assume others want to stay warm too 🙂

Shawls for when I’m inside and scarves for the outside. I love feeling cozy.
Cold weather = warm accessories!
Love cowls.
My favorite cool weather crotchet accessory would be a headband. I like the think headbands that keep your ears cozy.

Gloves…fingerless!

Scarves or cowls made with soft, delicious yarn!
I love scarves for chasing away the chill when I go out. But when I’m inside I need a good afghan to cuddle under to keep the chill away.
I know Edna said no capes, but I LOVE CAPES! A simple scoodie will also do in a pinch.
SHAWLS! Large cozy ones, mini shawls with fringe to wear as “jacket toppers”, medium “crushable” shawls to wrap around my neck in various ways, or as hoodies———–I love them all! I can’t wait for those first cool days of Fall to bring out all my favorites!
Can’t beat a pair of jeans, turtleneck and a fringy shawl to transform an ordinary trip to the grocery store into a fashion excursion!!!! People always ask about them, and I’ve met a LOT of folks who now want to learn to crochet themselves!!!!
The new textured yarns offer an infinite number of possibilities — even for beginners! I love sharing my skills with others of ALL ages.
I always have a shawl draped over my sofa, and one in my guest room. Oh, and as gifts they are ONE SIZE FITS ALL! Perfect!!!!
Just discovered cowls and am now OBSESSED!!

I love to knit and crochet scarfs that I give to friends. I use colour and all different stitch types.
afghans are my favorite to cuddle under and give away as gifts.
My harf as I call it, it is a hooded scarf I love it because I don’t like wearing a hat so this way I have a hat and scarf in one.
I love making hats and afghans for kids and adults. I also make a lot of boot cuffs. I have never made a cowl but I would love to. This would be my opportunity. I thank you for this opportunity.
Cowls
I enjoy making cowls and scarves for friends. The more the merrier!!
Knit & crochet hats, scarves, cowls & shawlettes. Make a lot of these for family & friends. Live in a senior apartment complexand make a lit of baby hats & blankets for new grand & great grand babies as gifts.
A warm, wide beret that doesn’t crush my hair and keeps my ears warm!
Hats, scarves and cowls
Infinity scarves!
Scarves, mostly cowls. If is it’s cold enough I would so be down with a cute hat!! 😀
For warmth and versatility, you can’t beat a shawl. Won over the head, around the shoulders, or even spread across the lap, shawls offer ease and comfort. They are extremely easy to make, and adjusting for size is so easy. I belong to a group of knitters/crocheters who make items for those in need. At the moment, we are working on 38 shawls for the residents of a home for indigent elderly women. I think they’ll enjoy as we are enjoying making them.
ear warmers and cowls. It get chilly on a motorcycle and these 2 things make a huge difference
Fingerless gloves and scarves 🙂
I love a nice warm cowl in the winter.
I love hats and then scarves. I had a trash can bag full at one time and then went through and gave a ton to my granddaughters
Cowls!
Love Cowls! Love Stitch & Unwind. Great Patterns!
I am already starting to make mine for winter gifts. They come out of the wood work asking for me to make things when it gets cold… gotta get a jump on them. Baby hats for local crisis center with the soft stuff.
I love to crochet! Recently started making cowls which I enjoy wearing and giving them away! I would like to try one made from elpaco chunky yarn…supposed to be very soft and warm…just having trouble finding the yarn locally.
So my new favourite is cowls but really enjoy wearing most items…I like to bundle up!
I enjoy most any crochet pattern but seem to make mostly afghans. Have made matching slouch hats and fingerless mittens for our 5 granddaughters and earmuffs for our 3 grandsons. The cowl I made for myself I found was way too warm for me. It will make a nice gift for someone.
I am always looking for great donation projects and these look like they would be great!
I like hats, scarves, and mittens.
I absolutely love wearing scarves and cowls, but especially love making them and giving them as gifts.
Have enjoyed finding great patterns from this site.
Mittens in all different colors
Cowl! Let’s me get by without a coat on all but the coldest days 🙂
I like Hats!!! You can never have too many – Or too many colors!!
I drive a school bus and don’t like the confinements of a coat so a nice warm cape and fingerless gloves are the perfect choice.
Mittens! I love cowls and scarves, but once my hands get cold, nothing seems to warm me back up.
Shawls, to wrap yourself in softness & warmth.
Love to crochet always looking for new patterns
I love a matching hat and scarf.
This past year I learned to make scarves with hoods. I loved them and they are so cozy.
My most prized cool weather accessory has got to be my convertible cowl that I knitted just last year. It is gray and white with teal i-cord drawstrings. It was my first time trying my hand at making my own pattern. I still get a feel of pride and joy every time I put it on!
I prefer to throw on a comfy open cardi with front pockets!
scarves and slippers…
I enjoy making scarves, cowls, hats, and fingerless gloves for gifts. Thank you for the chance to win some yarn.
Hats and scarves 🙂
Cowls and Shawls & Wraps are my loves!
I love to knit scarves of all kinds for cooler weather. Light and airy ones on warmer days, and chunky ones when it’s colder. Cowls and infinity scarves are my favorites right now.
My favorite cold weather accessories is scarfs, crowds that go around the neck to keep the chill down and your neck warm.
All the amazing cowls that I make I give away.
My favorite accessory are my knitting needles. Just love them and they’re so easy to use.
To wear or to make? I love wearing sweaters and wrapping myself up in afghans. I’m just starting out with crochet, so I like to make everything! Every new pattern is something new to learn and try. I want to try everything. I’m going to try making myself a sweater for the cooler weather. These cowls look fun, too. I like the mobius look. I have a cowl-neck sweater that is wearing out. I was thinking of making its replacement– that would be fun!
I like super soft scarves to wrap around my neck & tuck into my jacket to warm my throat & chest!
I have both crocheted and knitted scarves as presents. Am interested in doing cowls and hats. I also like to knit and crochet throws, afghans and baby blankets.
Wow! I haven’t a chance to win, but I do mostly charity work. Working on baby clothes to give to the local hospital. Would love to win the yarn, since I am on a fixed income.
Thank You
I love a nice warm cuddly afghan, and I love making them for Project Linus.
I need to wear scarfs in cold weather
I can’t decide between my wrister’s or my hats.
scarfs and baby hats. Love to make quick scarfs for grandkids and myself for our cold winters.
My daughter and I love beanies, hats, scarfs, shawls, long cardigans and afghans. As we live in a very cold place, so every little helps.
Thank you!
I love cowls. They keep you nice and warm on cold and windy winter days.
I am new to crocheting and want to make a prayer shawl to give to an 85 year old friend of my mother. (My mother passed a year to the date of your contest draw and I still take her friend out once a week) She keeps the heat low to save money and wears shawls and sweaters to keep warm.
Thanks for the chance to win some free materials.

I love crocheting scarves and footies for cold weather.
I love scarves and mittens
I love hats, scarves, cowls and fingerless mitts. I am always looking for new patterns. Now that my granddaughters are old enough I want to make things for them as well.
coat, gloves, scarf-lots of bundling
I’m new to crocheting, but love making hats and scarves. Trying afghans now.
I adore fingerless gloves.
I would love to be able to wear a coat again someday. We haven’t really had a winter here in California in 4 years and I haven’t worn a coat in that long because it hasn’t been cold enough.
I loves hats and gloves that go together
My sister knit me a cowl that is so soft and warm that I love wearing.
Hooded scarfs…
Hats! I love to make hats for my family, and sweaters for my little dog.
I love making hat, scarf and mitten sets for my grandaughters.
Afghans. I always have a supply of them ready to give as gifts or to use. My daughter’s classroom was cold this last winter and she took about half a dozen so her students could stay warm while in her room.
I would like to make a scarf or a cowel. I’m a beginner and never attempted them yet.
Hooded scarves. It gets cold out here on the farm.
Hats…especially baby hats with button detailing!
It would have to be ALL my crochet hooks without any question. During the Summer I like to crochet a
Floral Cami, Tank Tops and/or Halter tops. Happy Hooking!
The gloves come out first when cool weather arrives followed by a long, warm scarf.
Lightweight infinity scarves – they’re so versatile! They can be a cowl, a wrap, a hood – almost anything.
Scarves & cowls. Can be used in so many different ways. As a cuddly & warm accessory or as a change up to an outfit. Thick or thin long or short, Love them all.
Gloves and a Cowl!
Hats and scarfs, but never leave without a scarf in the colder months.
I was taught knitting and crochet in a younger life.
I want to reacquaint myself with those arts.
Last year I made my son a hooded scarf and my niece one but it was more of a hooded dress. The dress covered down to her waist and the hood covered everything but her eyes and I made the flap so it would cover everything else but could also be unbuttoned so she could eat without having to take it off.
My favorite is definitely scarves!
I love shawls and scarfs!!!
Scarves! You can never have enough, every shape, size and color!
I love scarfs and hats. All kinds of scarfs. I love accessorizing with scarfs. they are fashionable and beautiful, at the same time keep you warm.
The one accessory that I like to make is the cowl. I like the way you can just put it around your neck and just forget about it. The amazing patterns I find kept me busy crocheting all the time.
I love cowls – big fuzzy ones, ones with cute buttons, and cowls with hoods (and some with ears!)
Scarves
I LOVE cowls and shawls but my favorite is a poncho with a tall neck, I’ve made several varieties for wearing around the house and most of my family has one from me as well. I love browsing patterns on all-free-crochet for ideas and inspiration. I usually personalize patterns and only use the patterns as a guide which is one of the biggest advantages of crocheting. Thank you for all the amazing ideas.
I like to make wrist warmers and cowls. It doesn’t get to cold were I live. But, hands always seem to get cold.
Seriously Amazing Crochet Cowl is my favorite winter project.
I like to make socks and shrugs.
Hats definitely are a favorite of mine. My Mom and I always make bunches of all sizes for Operation Christmas Child boxes, Local Homeless Outreach, and a missionary hospital in Bangladesh.
I like prayer shawls both what I’ve gotten and what I’ve made to give away.
I love a nice shawl. It’s perfect for those cooler summer nights.
Hats and scarves!
Love making cowls and hats in the winter.
Crowl, hats, mittens and slippers are my favorite things to make for my grandchildren.
Scarves and headbands
Scarves are my favorite.
I love making warm hats to donate to our local women’s shelter!
Love love love scarfs!
Scarves, scarves, and more scarves!!!
Love those hats and scarves for my whole family!
