If you can pull one loop through another, you can make this comfortable garment, a good piece for beginners. It’s particularly handy for skiing or motorcycling, though a Harley man would prefer it in black.

For a classic turtleneck with pull-up ability, seam it up the back. If you’d rather have an open-collar look, finish it with a zipper up the front. Either way, it fits comfortably under a jacket or a sweater.

As a bonus, the pattern comes with a matching watch cap.

Both the neck warmer and the watch cap have been designed expressly with beginners in mind. If you can follow simple instructions, you can create this set.

To make things even easier, I’ve given charted instructions with checkmarks. Also, if you access the PDF on your computer, there are hyperlinks to a couple of good video tutorials.
