Soft Celtic Neck Warmer

I wanted to create an Irish neck warmer for my mother in-law. After finding some beautiful green Lion Brand Homespun yarn I thought that this simple pattern would do the trick. With my trusty 9mm hook in hand I created the base of this neck warmer by creating a rectangle of half double crochet rows.

This is more of a receipe than pattern.
Ch 25,
HDC in 3rd chain from hook, HDC across, Ch 1, turn
HDC in each stitch across until piece measures 25 inches.
Sew 6 buttons onto 1 corner .
Celtic knot is made by creating a long chain (using Bernat Satin and 4.5mm hook) and then creating a second chain from the chain already created (using 6.5mm hook).
I searched various Google images until I found a celtic knot that I liked and then folded the chain into a knot that suited the front. Once I had the knot created I sewed the joins together in the back of the knot using a needle and thread. Finally the knot was then appliqued onto the neckwarmer using matching thread so the stiches didn't show.

Enjoy
