\"Neck<\/div>\n<\/td>\n
It doesn’t help to be obsessed with the cold, even after you’ve spent over 13 years in a hot, humid environment (i.e., Houston) and move to a place like Utah that has definite seasons. Not only have I become determined to keep my hands warm with wrist warmers, but also with keeping my neck just as warm. After knitting some socks with Andey’s Sock Yarn, I had a skein and a half left over and decided to make myself a neck warmer, which can also be extended to scarf length. I still have a lot of yarn left and can see those wrist warmers taking shape. One of the cool things about using this yarn with crochet is the different patterns you get depending on the stitches and hooks used. This neck warmer started with stripes and ended up with a checkered pattern!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
