Bristol (Brizzle) Fairy Neckerchief
Intro offer: 25% off with the code FAIRY until Monday 18 May until midnight BST

The Bristol Fairy Neckerchief is a cute neck accessory that adds a little bit of fun to any outfit. The design came about because I wanted to make an accessory for The Big Flock yarn show using Birdstreet Yarn. When I saw their Suri Cloud minis I knew they had to be the star of the show. Holding the Suri double really makes the flowers pop. It’s possible to make more than one with a skein of fingering weight yarn and it can be made to look very different by selecting other contrast yarns.

A series of increases and corresponding decreases form the points of the neckerchief with a longer straight section in the middle that can be adjusted to get the length you desire.
