Choker - Chanel style

I am always cold in winter. Norway can be a pretty cold country to live in at times and we all have put on a lot of warm clothes. But I also have to put on a lot of extra clothes in spring and in the autumn, so adding all those monthes together, I am actually cold most of the year.This is why I have thought a lot of how I can dress in something pretty when it is freezing most of the time.
At work I like to use suits like blazer/jacket or blazer/trousers. Under the blazer I use shirts or blouses, and since it can get quite chilly in the neck/throat area, I tend to use scarves or snoods. Not a bad word about snoods - but they are not excactly elegant are they?
Looking at Chanels RTW Spring Collection 2014 I noticed these thick, wool, chain choker-necklaces, and I realized that these chokers just have to be nice and warm to wear.  Of course, I had to make my own version. I have made them with wool (non-itchy) yarn, and the result is - nice'n warm. No need for snoods every day! And folks; this is EASY TO MAKE. It is just dc's all the way. I will post some guidelines on the page Chrochet Patterns.




 

I used 3 different kinds of yarn including a thin satin-ribbon. Chrochet needle no. 7.

The striped version. I stiched on a part of an old necklace.
