This large, soft neck warmer knits up quickly using a bulky weight mohair yarn such as Patons Divine. A cross between a cowl, a cape and a neck warmer, the inclusion of an open seam with buttonholes offers many versatile ways to wear the finished item.

Having knitted this initially from my head, I had a couple of requests to write up my pattern, so here it is! (Many thanks to joeli and Lnupermom, whose excellent proof-reading and suggestions have improved the writing of this pattern no end!)
