My neck cozy measures 20“ x 8“ (50cm x 20cm), is knit with size 4mm (US6) needles and uses one skein of Sugar ‘n Cream (120 yd/109 m)…

and is cottony soft. I know it won’t give much protection in the depth of winter, but most days it’s a warm hug around the neck…
You could add a button and not have to make a buttonhole, just slip the button through one of the eyelets…

Happy Valentine's Day! Happy Chocolate Day! I'll wish you a peaceful week, dear reader, and hope to see you next Friday.
