I didn't like it at all: waaay to stripy and a little too feminine. And I couldn't get the yarn where I changed colors to disappear. SO. I resorted to my knitting books. I'm really trying stay away from these books and rely on my own designs. But desperate times call for desperate measures. And with like seven days 'till Christmas, I had no choice. I found this scarf in 'Knit Cafe'.
I liked it. Manly. Not too stripy. Stockinette. Awesome. Double-knitting. What??? I've never heard of double-knitting before. I gave it a try. Let me tell you people. This is AMAZING! You have got to try it. It takes twice the time to knit (oh joy) b/c you're knitting both sides. But the effect is gorgeous! It was just what I was looking for. One of my brothers requirements was that it be "smooth, not all bumpy". So this is perfect. Let's see if I get it done it time!
