Due to having a medical line in my neck, I've made this kind of weird fake polo-neck thing to wear.

I'm not sure if it looks totally ridiculous or just a bit ridiculous. I don't much care either way as I'm SO cold too, but just wondered what others thought please?


@Florence Looks great, and very cozy! It just looks like part of your sweater. I wouldn't glance twice, and in no way does it look ridiculous. You rock it. 🙂

@Superstitionsee Thank you for this! I quite like it but thought maybe it didn't look nice. So thank you! xx

@Florence I think it looks good. I also think anyone who has the audacity to disparage you for it doesn't care about your comfort and can therefore stuff their opinions in their orifice of choice.

But I am in a Mood.

@danialexis Thank you! I'm very much with you on this, I don't over care what folk think but, at the same time, I generally try to at least look the right side of weird rather than the wrong side. This is really cosy and comfortable and so thank you for reassuring me. ❤️

@danialexis @Florence
I think it looks good, warm and comfy. And 100% agree about anyone who says anything to you.

@heyrhiannon @danialexis Thank you! I was hoping it looked OK, I thought it did but, you know what it's like, it's hard to tell once you've made something. Thank you.

@Florence I Iike it! My first thought after was "I wonder if she's doing them in other colors for other sweaters?" 😊😊😊

@GypsyGirl Hah! You know, it did make me think, 'I must do more of these'! But, for now, one is enough! Thank you for saying you liked it.

@Florence @GypsyGirl I actually really like it. It looks super cozy and stylish.

@Notokay @GypsyGirl That's so nice of you, thank you. I could see what I wanted to make in my mind but wasn't at all sure it would work. I'm really happy that people seem to like it and think it looks OK. Thank you. xx

@Florence @GypsyGirl Seriously, I would totally comission you to make me one! 😆 My neck is always cold. I wear turtlenecks from October through March, and I have a scarf collection to beat the band. But this is a whole other level of refinement!

@Notokay @GypsyGirl I'm the same. LOVE big necks on things. Scarves are great but don't always work well with coats or some jumpers. I just suddenly thought 'surely I can come up with something!' Maybe they'll catch on! 😀

@Florence @GypsyGirl I think you are definitely on to something! (Scarves often get in the way, or the soup.) (And yes, I do know how to spell commission!)

@Notokay @GypsyGirl Hah! You're tooting with the queen of typos here! And yes, I love a nice scarf too but they do tend to 'drape' in all the wrong places! 😂

@Florence It looks v. cosy and kinda like a snow capped volcano (I have Fuji-yama in my mind). Wear it with pride and best wishes for your improving health.

@Vapidiot Thank you. I really appreciate people giving feedback on this as I am at the point where I no longer know if things look weird or nice! Thank you. xx

@Florence

Not ridiculous at all. It's pretty.

Is it soft? It looks soft. Perhaps the next best thing to having Flossie draped around your neck.

(Hi, lovely girl!)

@waywardflf Thank you! And, yes, it's beautifully soft (and warm). I'm not one to be over-bothered about what others think, but I was very keen on this once I'd made it but, recognizing my history of hideous fashion mistakes(!), I wanted to ask!

And lovely girl is lovely. And noisy. And cheeky!
