Notes

Trying this pattern for the second time. (see my Olive Wool Cowl project)

I have plenty of this vintage red yarn, four and a half ounces, so I won’t run out of yarn this time and I’m pretty sure I know where I went wrong with those pesky increase markers. Still, I’m going to experiment on a swatch before I do any increases on the neck warmer itself. Until then, the 2×2 ribbed part is easy breezy knitting.

Using stitch markers for double increases is easy… once you know how! HaHa

The “bib” is curling up terribly! Anxious to see what blocking will do.

Instead of wet blocking I used a little hand steamer. Great Results!

Used three ounces of this rather airy yarn.
