Today i am venturing to give you a tutorial! (wow, get me!)
So what is a neck snuggly? we I'm sure there is a proper name for them but its one of these
my two keeping warm with their snugglies |
So, if you fancy one you will need:
Fleece or something similarly warm/soft/snuggly
and
the ability to sew it up.
Firstly cut it out -
I made the kiddywinks ~1m by the width of the fabric (150cm)- its a big rectangle
Then
fold it in half (right sides together) so it is 50cm by the width of the fabric, sew it up so it makes a long tube.
turn it right side out.
Next
line up the seam, making sure there are no twists in the tube, pin it.
This is the trickiest bit
Begin to sew the tube up, working around the circle. It gets a little tricky towards the end but sew as far as it will go, you end up with something like this
then pull it so its right side out
this leaves a little gap which you can them sew up - i hand stitched mine, and then you too can be warm
Hope this keeps you warm
TTFN!
I remember something similar from the 80s - I think they were called snoods, but snugglies is much nicer.
