Dancing With The Fae Neck Warmer was born from ideas of the magical!

The tulle is added in a similar way to fringing, so if the need to wash the piece arises it can easily be removed and replaced.

For the yarn I used some leftover Hobbii Friends Extra Soft Merino 4-ply combined with Prestige Moseta Kid Mohair and Silk 4-ply held double. This combination adds to the fae-like feel of the piece, as it is unbelievably soft.

Of course, this design needed a touch of quirk. The main body tapers wider, and the added flowers slowly grow in size. It closes with a button and long ties..

Finished Measurements (Laid Flat Without Fringe)

··       Long sides total measurement with all colours: 54cm/21.2inches

·       Narrow end width: 23 cm / 9 inches

·       Wide end width:  4c cm / 16.5 inches

The pattern can easily be sized larger by increasing the diameter around the neck. Additional rows could be added in groups of six. This would ensure that further extra small flowers could be created to fit along the edge.
