Yoriko's Neck Warmer

This product is only for the pattern in PDF format.

🧶Looking for the yarns? Yoriko Oki has put together a kit here.

Inspired by my spring travels and a special meeting… Read the story in the pattern.

Yoriko’s Neck Warmer is constructed in the round from end to end. It is worked with two weights of yarn, a mohair yarn with its lofty structure and a DK with a more substantial construction. Together they tackle those chilly spring/autumn days while adding a unique touch to your wardrobe. The pattern provides just enough detail to add fun to your knitting time.

I am curious to see your interpretation of Yoriko's Neck Warmer; share with #letricotaveccaro.
