Introduction
Demonstrates how to make a beautiful, trendy cozy bowl. The project is beginner-friendly and can be completed in about an hour to an hour and a half, depending on your crochet speed. Note, it is essential to use 100% cotton yarn for this project due to safety reasons when using the microwave.

- Crochet hook: 5.5 mm
- Scissors
- Darning needles
- Stitch markers
Step-by-Step Instructions
Creating the Magic Circle
- Start with a magic circle (or alternatively, chain 3 and slip stitch into the first chain to form a ring, then chain 1).
- Chain 1.
Round 1
- Make 6 single crochets (sc) inside the magic circle.
- Tighten the magic circle slightly, but avoid closing it completely.
- Place a stitch marker in the first stitch to mark the beginning of the round.
Round 2
- Single crochet twice in each of the 6 stitches (total of 12 sc).
- Move the stitch marker to the start of the next round.
Round 3
- Single crochet in the first stitch, then 2 single crochets in the next stitch.
- Repeat: 1 sc in the next stitch, 2 sc in the following stitch (total of 18 sc).
- Mark the beginning of the round after every row.
Continuing Growth
- Next rounds repeat the pattern, increasing the number of single crochets by one each round:
- Round 4: 2 sc + increase (total of 24 sc).
- Round 5: 3 sc + increase (total of 30 sc).
- Continue until you reach 8 sc + increase (total of 72 sc).
Mid-section Rows
- Rows 9 to 15: Single crochet stitch to stitch (no increases or decreases).
Resuming Increases
- Round 16: 9 sc + increase.
- Round 17: 10 sc + increase.
- Continue the pattern until you reach 14 sc + increase (total of 96 sc).
Finishing Row
- Slip stitch into the next chain to bring the stitches together.
- Chain 3, then make 4 double crochets (dc) in the skipped stitch.
- Skip one chain and slip stitch into the next.
- Repeat the pattern: Skip one chain, make 4 dc, and continue around until the end.
Conclusion
- Finish off and hide the tails using a darning needle.
