Well, the gifts weren’t actually late, but I’m late blogging about them… Instead of bringing flowers for a small hostess gift a few weeks back, I decided to bring two handknitted neckwarmers. Here they are:

Pudorosa Neckwarmer by Lia Moya
Yarn: Wilferts Pure Cashmere
Needles: 3.5 mm circular
Modifications: I skipped the buttonholes, instead I added a buttonloop and placed the button for an asymmetrical closing.

Ribbed Scarf by Celeste Glassel
Yarn: Drops Merino Extra Fine
Needles: 4.00 mm circular
Modifications: Inspired by Slim Slicks version I added a simple cable down the middle
I’m very happy with both these small projects, and they were both very well received
Recently I’ve had very little time for knitting, however I did find time to make these… admitted I was a little inspired by Valentines Day.

Oh, I love the neckwarmer and what you did with the closing. It’s beautiful and classy!

Both the neckwarmer and the scarf are gorgeous! I love the edging on the neckwarmer – so pretty!
