Neck Warmers - Cuffs & Cowls

I've been trying something new.
Neck warmers!
I have made two so far and I'm planning on making lots more because I love them.
They're a great variation on the scarf. They are easy to wear and don't have bits that get in the way.

This one is a cowl.  I knitted a ribbed rectangle about 70cm long by 25cm wide.
Then twisted it and sewed the short ends together.


And this one is another rectangle 73cm long by 11cm wide using the bobble yarn from Lincraft.
I made a button hole at the end and added a large button to the other end.


There are more to come but both of these are available on my Made It store Sew Thea at the moment.

Click on the button to check them out.

  2. I absolutely love the blue one with the big button. Unfortunately it doesn't get cold enough in Perth to wear that type of accessory (or I don't feel the cold as much as others do). Fantastic idea.

  3. What a clever idea. I don't wear scarves for the bits that always fly around, but these would keep my neck warm during cold windy winter days. They are very attractive too.
