The crochet pom neck warmer is such a beautiful statement piece, enjoy the free pattern!
It is easy to work up yet shows a lot of detail, looks great paired with a solid top! Makes a great gift as well!
The neck warmer slips over your head then you roll the collar down. Measures approx. 7.5″ wide.

Materials:
- Medium worsted weight yarn (4), 280 yards, I used Hobby Lobby’s I love This Yarn. Lion Brand has some nice yarns in a great variety of colors that I would recommend:
- Size I, 5.5 mm crochet hook
- Tapestry needle
Abbreviations:
st(s)- stitch(es)
ch- chain
sc- single crochet
hdc- half double crochet
dc- double crochet
sl st- slip stitch
Pom stitch:
yarn over, go through stitch and pull up a lp, yarn over, go through same stitch again and pull up a lp, repeat 2 more times (4 total) then pull yarn through all loops on hook.
Bead stitch:
After you’ve made your dc, yo and insert hook around the post you made with the dc. You will be working sideways. Yo again and insert hook around the dc, yo again and insert hook around the dc, yo one more time and insert hook again around the dc. Yo and pull through all loops, 1 bead stitch made.
Neck Warmer Pattern:
Ch 98
Row 1: Dc in 3rd ch from the hk and each st across, turn (96).
Row 2: Ch 2, dc in each st across, turn (96).
Row 3: Ch 2, *sk next st, dc in next, bead st,* repeat from * to end, ending with a dc in last st, turn (96).
Row 4: Ch 2, 2 dc in each sp across ending with 2 dc in last st, turn (96).
Row 5: Ch 2, dc in each st across, turn (96).
Repeat rows 3-5 two more times for a total of 11 rows. Fasten off on last row.
Sewing:
Position the scarf so one side goes over the other side coming to a point in the front.
Once you have it positioned where you like, sew through both layers at 3 points: on each corner where the top part of the scarf overlaps and on the other side. Weave in ends.
Pom Edging:
Pick up a loop anywhere around the edging of the scarf and hdc 90 (doesn’t have to be exact but needs to be a multiple of 2) evenly around (hdc through both overlapping areas). Sl st in last st.
With the wrong side facing you, ch 2.
Row 1: *Pom in the 2nd ch from the hk, ch 1, sl st in same st, sc in next 2 sts, ch2,* repeat from * around. Sl st in last st and fasten off. Weave in all ends.
Pin it for later!

I don’t know why I should be surprised! Every time I am looking through a long list of patterns, yours are always the ones that catch my eye. I never know who the artist is until I click. Thank you so much for another amazing pattern! You are truly gifted. I want you to know there will be a lot of very happy people Christmas day because of you! Thank you for helping me end a very trying year with beautiful gifts of love. Happy holidays and STAY SAFE!
Thank you for your kind words Gayla! This made my day! Happy holidays!
Hi Laura! I really love this neck warmer, great pattern! Does the chain 2 at the beginning of the round count as a stitch? I feel like sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn’t?
Hi, the ch 2 does not count as a stitch.
Thanks so much! Finished my first one. I love it, I’m going to make more for gifts to keep for next Christmas!
Hi there! Want to make this but have a clarifying question.
on the bead stitch, after I pull through all the loops, do I do a single stitch to close it? Or do I pull through the loops and go straight into a doubly crochet again? I’m doing a closing stitch and I feel like it’s expanding too much. Please help! Thank you!!
you ch 1 to close it 🙂
Hi Laura, Just found your pattern yesterday and new to your blog. Question on the Pom Edging section…it says to hdc 90 (or an even #)…but says to sc where the scarf overlaps. Is that a typo or intentionsl (sc for the overlap parts but hdc on the rest?) I’ll try it both ways…I wonder if the sc causes the bottom to shape differently. Thanks for sharing your design, I’m starting now!
Hi Pam! It is hdc in the part where it overlaps. So sorry, I did not catch that typo before, it is corrected now 🙂
Thanks, I thought I was going crazy….just went back on your site because I’m ready to start on the edging and saw it was hdc all around and thought uh-oh, I must have read it wrong the first time, lol!! I love you pattern, I’m already planning another one. Buying the pattern this time …get a cup of coffee as a thank you!
Thank you Pam! I appreciate that!
love the beaded pom neck warmer but it doesn’t say how to do the pom portion. Am I missing something or should I already know this?
Hi! The pom stitch is explained towards the beginning of the post 🙂
