Alder Neck Cozy
I had promised to post the pattern for my Alder Neck Cozy. Alas, the notebook that held my pattern notes has been accidentally discarded. I was cleaning out my bookshelves and, noticing that several notebooks were full, I threw out the lot of them, not realizing that one of them still held my unwritten pattern! The trash pickup came before I noticed my error. So it’s back to square one, trying to recreate what I did by just looking at my finished item and fiddling with my hook to try to remember the finer points. I can’t promise that I will ever come up with the finished pattern but I will give it a try. Now that I am learning how to knit, I’m finding all kinds of interesting knitting patterns I want to make! 
BTW The poncho shown here underneath the neckwarmer is Josi’s Poncho by Josi Hannon Madera.

Thanks Dottie, I am almost finished re-writing the pattern for the neckwarmer but I had to make another one! The garment underneath is Josie’s Poncho by Josie Hannon Madera. I used the yarn she called for in the pattern and it came out great!

Don’t you just hate that kind of thing happening? Specially when we do it to ourselves?

My problem is that I am a consumate cleaner, exactly the opposite from a horder! If I haven’t used something for a while, out it goes!

You had notebooks full or written patterns that you tossed away?! You are strong – I would ahve been in tears.

Kimberly, they were just notes I scribbled while I was designing something. Very messy. Once I get the final copy written up I usually get rid of them.
