Distinguished Gentleman's Neck Warmer Modifications

I decided to make this neck warmer for my father for when he rides his motorcycle in the winter. Unfortunately I didn't have a 16" size 7 circular needles and magic loop wasn't working for me, so I decided to knit it flat:

*Cast on 94 stitches
*Knit 4 rows
*Work pattern of RS/WS rows until entire neck warmer measures 6 1/2" ending after RS row
-RS:          K1*K2, YO, K2TOG* K1
-WS:         P1*P2TOG, YO, P2* P1
*Next row work K2*K2TOG, K2* around
*Knit 3 rows
*Bind off loosly,  sew edges together, and lightly block

I made it larger so it could cover the mouth and nose.
