This super cosy neck warmer is made with 2 weights of yarn. This gives it a lovely subtle undulating texture. I’ve used chunky (bulky) and double-knit (light worsted).

It is made using the brioche crochet method, which creates vertical stripes on one side, and horizontal stripes on the reverse. This means that the neck warmer can be worn either side. It is secured with button toggles, which can be removed easily and placed as desired.

This is an ideal project for using up your left-over yarn. I’ve used a self-striping chunky yarn as the main yarn, and 5 colours of double-knit yarn which pick out the colours in the chunky yarn. You could use as many contrast colours as you like.
