A Fury Neck Warmer for Those Chilly Days

Follow

I took a pattern for a scarf that I liked and made some adjustments to make a child’s neck warmer.  I made this to complete a Christmas present and to be worn with the hat I wrote about on October 14, Get A Head Start on Gift Making.

Fury Neck Warmer

What you will need

1 skein bulky weight wool yarn
2 skeins fun fur
Size 11 needles
2 – 3 buttons
Thread to match

1. Cast on 20 stitches, using both the yarn and the fun fur.

Row 1: Knit

Row 2: Knit

Row 3: *K1 wrapping yarn twice around needle*, repeat from * to * to end of row

Row 4: *K1 dropping the wrap stitches*, repeat from * to * until end of row

Repeat rows 1 through 4 until neck warmer measures 20″

Pattern

Continue for another 2 1/2″ to 3″, depending on the size of your buttons, knitting all rows. Bind off loosely.

Weave in yarn.

Sew buttons on knitted row.  I chose to sew one on the top and one in the middle so that the bottom of the neck warmer would spread a little.
