I finished my new scarflet or is it a neck warmer? What ever it is I have finished it and here it is....
I have knitted it out of black 8 ply wool and fringed it with a felted wool which is ultra soft and feels beautiful against your skin. I have added twists of red thread sporadically through out the fringe and cuff and added different sized red buttons here and there also. It does up on the side with two large press studs but I have given the illusion of button holes as I added big red buttons.
I have a little confession to make too. I am a little unsure about posting this. Why I hear you ask? Because I don't actually want this scarflet neck warmer thingamagiggy. I want to sell it. I want to make more like it. All sorts of different ones. More fringe, less fringe. More buttons, no buttons. But you see the problem is I know I would wear it but I then am a bit of a freak and I probably can't judge whether anyone else would.
Do any of you know anyone who would wear this?

I think it's lovely. Alas, I have a short stumpy neck and skinny shoulders so I can't wear things like that. It would look perfect on someone with a long slender neck.
How funky is this! AND it's black, so of course you can tick that box too! It's fabulous Melanie.
Me again - I just found this picture on My Vintage Vogue and thought of your neck warmer.
Oh it's beautiful! And what a glamour shot. That's what's missing in our lives. Genuine glamour. sigh
