The Field Notes Neck Warmer is a quick to knit mini-scarf, with an interesting stitch pattern inspired by the picturesque landscape at Chilton Grounds Farm.

Each year, the beautiful hedgerows that grow alongside the medieval ridge and furrow fields burst into blossom. The stitch patterns of this versatile neck warmer reflect these features, with each blossom pattern section intersected by knitted ridges and furrows.

The neck warmer is knitted lengthwise, starting with a ridged triangle shape. Once the full width is reached, the pattern continues as a long thin rectangle, before decreasing to form a matching triangle at the other end. The neck warmer can be fastened with your favourite shawl pin or wrapped around the neck with the ends tucked in to keep you cosy!

To knit the Field Notes Neck Warmer you will need 1 x 100g skein or ball of special DK yarn of at least 160m/ 175yds.

Samples shown are knitted in Chilton Wensleydales DK Hand-Dyed Tweed (100% Wool, 160m/ 175yds per 100g skein) in shades Bittersweet (purple) and Forget Me Not (blue).
