We&rsquo;ve tried the same principle with a different yarn. It turned out real nice and was done in a couple of hours.<br /><br /><br /><strong>What you need:</strong><br />2 balls of yarn in multiple colours, we used Mohair Lux from Schachenmayr.<br />The black yarn has a lot of different nuances, although it might be hard to see in the photo.<br />Circular knitting needle 15 mm</p>

You can pull it over your head twice or use it hanging. If you want a single neck warmer, you might want to cast on 30-35 stitches instead.<br /><br />We knitted back and forth because we could get away with just knitting the garter stitch&hellip;a bit lazy. <br /><br />At the beginning of every row you slip one stitch. Whenever you change colours, make sure the yarn isn&rsquo;t too tight, as the piece might end up very uneven in the different ends.<br /><br />Every second row you change colour, but because you slip one stitch at the beginning of each row, this will look seamless, and there&rsquo;s no need to cut the ends every time.<br /><br />We knitted until the piece was 50 cm long.<br /><br />On the last row before you cast off, we increased one stitch every three stitches. If you don&rsquo;t the piece will tighten at the top.<br /><br />Assemble the short ends and keep your neck warm!<br /><br /><span class="full-image-block ssNonEditable"><span><img src="http://www.pickles.no/storage/hals/pavegg_dobbel.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1238762396233" alt="" /></span></span><br /><em>This is a <strong>free neck warmer knitting pattern </strong>from<strong> pickles.no</strong>.
