Sometimes, during a long, gray winter, full of bad weather, you just want to feel warm, comfortable and pretty (even if you're wearing simple corduroys and a turtleneck or sweatshirt and sweatpants!) This little neckie will do it. Hope you all like it. It is so easy to make that I would like to suggest it for gift-giving and for charity also.
