Neck Warmers for him or her....

I have been super busy creating so many things and I am finally back up to write you something about them.

I started crocheting these cool neck warmers (or some call them cowls).  I actually made them for my husband ...he was saying he didn't want to wear a bulky scarf to shovel snow.  So I saw something similar to this on Pinterest .  Once I measured, took apart, measured again (for my husband LOL) I finally got the hang of how to make these (my version that is).

I crochet these with soft acrylic yarn and of course these are UNISEX which I totally love!  They have the perfect stretch to it so it will fit a guy or a girl. 

This neck warmer honestly didn't take a lot of yarn which was great for the leftover yarn I still had around I will recommend always to machine wash and dry (follow the instructions on the skein of yarn you use).

Crochet Ear Warmers

You will definitely not mind being outside with these hand crochet ear warmers.  Not only will your forehead not feel the cold but you will protect your ears and still look fabulous.

These are simple and fashionable and let’s not forget adorable! I crochet these with soft acrylic yarn, and some I have with a button to fasten or you can tie it behind your head.  They do have a stretch to it so it will fit most ladies heads.  You definitely will ward off the chill with my crocheted accessories such as these ear warmers.

I like making these in a variety of colors, thickness, width and style.  You can add buttons or trimming to them.  Also, you can utilize your leftover yarn from other projects to make these.  They are machine washable and line dry preferably.

Crochet Shawls

Crochet Shawl by Yolanda's Creations
Depending on your choice of style, this self-shaping rectangle shawl can be worked thick and warm for winter or delicate and lacy for a summer evening.  I started making these when I just feel in love with the way they could be worn and how they felt wrapped around me.
I have made others in the similar style but different colors and yarn.  Most of mine will measure approximately 52Lx14W.  It definitely will and can take about 5-6 skeins of yarn.

Depending on the yarn type you to make your shawl I would say not to machine dry.  You definitely can machine wash it in cold water and line dry or if you prefer the drier put it in for a very short period.

I also would dress it up with a wooden shawl pin.  All of mine I purchased at Lion Brand Yarn.  You can get them pretty much anywhere but I liked the ones I saw here and got most of mine from LB.
You can add fringes at the ends if you want to add more character to your shawls…my next one will have those (currently my ponchos all have fringes).

These are perfect for gifts as well.  It’s simple and practical and just pretty!
