Twisty (Named after our lovely duckling with the twisted beak)

This is a variation on the “Easy Does It!” super easy neckwarmer. The ribbed texture is made possible by half-double crochet stitches worked in the back-loop of stitches in rows, making for good stretchy fabric. The twist takes advantage of this stretch and texture, plus the change in subtle colour, creating an elegant twist to a simple design.

Design Notes:

This neckwarmer is crocheted in rows flat, in one colour, then continued in a second colour. The neckwarmer is then twisted once and the ends crocheted together. Choose softly complimenting colours to re-create the subtle colour lightness of the neckwarmer.

Using suggested yarn and hook, starting 31 ch makes a neckwarmer 5.5” tall. Make shorter or higher as you require. The circumference is 20” which fits adult sizes with a bit extra to accommodate for the twist. Adjust to desired size accordingly.
