Man Scarf

At times, my fiance's little brother can be adorable. At other times he really isn't. But this Christmas I thought that it was really sweet that he brought me some Wool-Ease Chunky and asked for a hat and scarf.

I didn't think much of it but was really looking forward to designing the scarf. The future in-laws gave me a stitch dictionary for Christmas and I was planning on using that to find something very boyish. I've been swatching ever since and it took me until this morning to cast on to a cabled but lame pattern (I really didn't want to use a pattern) from Lion Brand's site. It should look nice and hopefully it will be done by the time I see them this weekend. The hat's long off the needles.
