Tropicana Neck Warmer Crochet Pattern

The beautiful texture of this neckwarmer is created with a graduated ribbing. Slip stitches are worked at the neckline, then single crochet, then half double crochet, and finally double crochet stitches. The graduated stitches give the neckwarmer its circular shape. The neckwarmer closes with large funky buttons highlighted with a purple flower at the lower edge. This neckwarmer will keep cold winds away from your neck in style all winter long. A bright and fun addition to any wardrobe! Instructions are for one size but the pattern can be easily adjusted to fit smaller or larger neck sizes.
