Solo is a neat crochet neck warmer that can be worn as a collar or as a cowl. It is a great piece to wear when that extra warmth around the neck is needed, but you’d prefer to wear something small and chic. As a collar, it looks great with a casual outfit, but it can also easily be added to the office- or party outfit as a trendy accessory. As a cowl, Solo is a bit larger, and it brings all the coziness both indoors and outdoors on those chillier days.

The project is worked flat, sideways, in one piece. It closes with buttons on one of the sides. It’s really quick to crochet and makes a great gift for friends and family.
