How to: make a cosy, faux-fur neckwarmer

We've just had the coldest day of autumn so far this year, and I'm sure I'm not alone in digging out my scarves, hot water bottles and other winter warmers this week.

If you'd like to step out in something a bit more stylish this year than the usual chunky knits, then faux fur is a really good fabric to work with. It looks elegant, is easy to turn into ready-to-wear pieces, and is one of the warmest materials around. Love Meagen is already on to this and made this brilliant DIY neckwarmer that you can make too: full instructions are here.
