Summer’s End Chunky Neck Warmer Crochet Pattern

When I was designing this neck warmer, I wanted it to be the kind of accessory that would feel good to just grab and throw on…no fussing with buttons and no trying to figure out how the whole thing works.

So, instead off adding a bunch of fussy embellishments, I simply tacked the edges down for a grab-and-go finished product that would look great hanging from a hook by the back door AND hanging around your neck.

Made of super chunky yarn, it’s quick to make and oh so gorgeous with its automatic striping. If you don’t like stripes, simply use a solid color yarn of similar gauge. The texture is enough to make a statement!

  • Beginning ch1 counts as SC.
  • To increase or decrease width, adjust starting chain by multiple of 2 sts.
  • To increase the length, work additional rows following the established pattern.

Special Stitches

GRIT STITCH

The Grit Stitch is created by working both a SC and DC into the same stitch and, then, skipping the next stitch.

In the pattern, it will read like this: “work SC and DC in next CH, sk next CH” as you work into your beginning chain or “work SC and DC in next SC, sk next DC” once you’re working on pattern rows..

If you prefer a charted example, as the stitch is worked into a row of chains, it will look like this:
