First of all, this is a hefty pattern for a beginner. It is relatively easy but you are wanting to make changes to it which are not calculated in the pattern and i cannot be sure what you are going to end up with. I am sorry, but I cannot tell you the stitch count if you add a row that is not called for in the pattern. Why would you want to do that? I do not see the reason for it. It is absolutely unnecessary.Craftybegoniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873176762991601294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712128535546764417.post-13615393581551647652016-03-23T08:49:19.178-07:002016-03-23T08:49:19.178-07:00Hello - I am a beginner and would like to add a ro...Hello - I am a beginner and would like to add a row of single crochet after the foundation chain. What would be my stich counts for the foundation chain and the single crochet row before beginning Row 1 in your instructions?

I would tell you how I would do it if I wanted to reduce it to a child's size. 1- Depending upon the girl's age, I would measure her head as if I was going to make a hat for her (the cowl has to go comfortably over her head) and add maybe 20 stitches more so that it would be comfortable around her neck. Then I would determine how wide it has to be to actually be to have about the width of a turtle neck collar (at the very least), make a paper pattern with your measurements, tape it at the ends to make a tube and use that tube to calculate the starting chain you will make to start the cowl and the width you will reach as you crochet the rows upward. Than, just make the roses smaller by using a smaller size of crochet hook. Hope this helps! <br />Craftybegoniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873176762991601294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712128535546764417.post-89302542521646061422014-12-26T23:05:40.118-08:002014-12-26T23:05:40.118-08:00How do I go about making a smaller version of this...How do I go about making a smaller version of this lovely cowl for a child/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02138455362902719125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712128535546764417.post-87444110050865361242014-12-26T23:04:05.467-08:002014-12-26T23:04:05.467-08:00I presume this is for an adult.

Aselle is 25" around, it is not meant to be an infinity cowl, just a short cowl that kind of hugs your neck and keeps the wind out in a pretty fashion. You can make it longer if you like and add more roses down the front.Craftybegoniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873176762991601294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712128535546764417.post-22633286314857407752014-08-30T11:16:59.973-07:002014-08-30T11:16:59.973-07:00I started making this last night.

Mine doesn't seem quite long enough so I'm adding a few more rows, but I don't want to get it too long.
