Warmers for Warriors are a special collection of neck warmer patterns. All the proceeds of your pattern purchase goes to supporting the Wounded Warriors Project. Lavender Hill Knits is a proud supporter of our troops, and their families, who have served our country in the armed forces and are coping with injuries that occurred during their service. They are perfect for men or women and make great gifts. At the end of the pattern there are abbreviated instructions. Print out that one page on cardstock paper, cut around the border and you have a convenient shortened version of the instructions that you can easily slip into a small knitting pouch. I hope you enjoy making these warmers and I’m thrilled that your purchase helps me support Wounded Warriors! Thank you so much :)

The Textured Triangles Warmer is a bit more challenging than the other warmers in this collection. It involves using a chart, or use the written instructions if you prefer. Even though the body is knit in two colors, you will only be knitting with one color at a time. To get the color pattern, you will be slipping the opposite color stitches on each row. It’s a fun challenge and the results are worth it! It’s also a great take-along project since it will fit nicely into a small project bag. A perfect project for taking on a car trip!

Instructions are both written and charted.
