Vera neckwarmer is worked from the top down in brioche stitch. First the collar is worked in the round followed by short rows for shaping of the neck as well as increasing over the shoulders. The front and the back are worked separately back and forth, with decreasing in both sides in the lower half.

Other knitting techniques used are Italian cast on, four rows of double knitting, and Italian bind off.

For the Italian cast on and bind off I refer to my video tutorials at my Instagram account.

Brioche knitting stretches during use but contracts after wash and blocking.
