DH recently asked me to knit him a neckwarmer to keep his neck from getting sunburnt on his hikes. He decided that Knitpicks' Gloss would be a good yarn to use for this purpose. The more I thought about it the more I realized I needed a neckwarmer out of Gloss not DH.

Sorry about the photo but my arms are just too short for great self-portraits. I used the free pattern HERE and modified it to just fit my neck (and huge head).



I used a size 4 US circ and did the 99 st cast on. I did only two rows of garter stitch edging and used about 2/3 of a skein of Gloss. I did 2 full repeats of the pattern and ended on row 5.



Tomorrow I'll show you the colors I'm going to use for the Dale Whistler sweater.
