    Looks great, and yet is still simple enough, with the double stranded and stitch used, to whip up fast!

    I really like the pop of color as the two bottom rows. It turns a monotone scarf into a little jazz.

    I heart this pattern! I needed a nice pattern for the hubby, so this comes just in time. Thanks!!

    I love the ad, btw – “Dave is taken… but the pattern is free.” Love it!

    Very nice! A great project for my daughter. She crochets. I knit.

    Oh, by the way, I’ve been meaning to post about a great knitting involved movie. It’s a foreign film, “Wool 100%” in Japanese with English subtitles. I think you would get a kick out of it!
