What do you think? For a guy?

[Mom w/a Motif]

 

Here is a scarf I made up, for our boys. I wanted stripes, so I could 'tie' (ha ha.. get it.. tie.. scarf... okay that was bad..) our middle sons' coat and hat together. (His hat is orange, and his coat is a khaki green.) It kind of looks knitted to me, like garter stitch. What do you think for an adult guy, though? I'm trying to make the 'perfect' scarf for my brother. (He lives in L.A., so it has to be cool...)

The picture should be clickable for a close-up. I forgot to mention this pattern was accepted in the 2007 Crochet-A-Day Calendar!

And, I forgot to mention as well... I put the pattern up at my pattern blog if anyone is interested in making their own version... Lunatic Fringe Scarf

I would go for a skinnier scarf for an adult guy, I think. I really like that!

Thank you Faith! I did make another one for our oldest that I haven't taken a picture of, and I did make it skinnier. That one was black, grey, lt. grey. I'll try to get a picture of it up soon.

I would agree, a little skinner for your brother, but I definitely think that pattern is "cool" enough for a guy living in L.A.

Very cool. Looks like a Navajo blanket!

Thank you Crochet Dude! You are a guy, and a crocheter so your opinion means a lot to me.

 

And everyone else, too.

I really like the stripes and I think the grey color scheme is very masculine. I don't know if I would make it much skinnier, though. I wouldn't want it to look one of those "super skinny" girl scarves that are so popular right now!

 

 

Just my (and keep up the good work!)...

I agree, the gray one would work for a guy. I like the long stripes too. One question...what does a guy living in LA need a scarf for?? I live in the northeast where scarves are definately needed but wondering about LA!

definitely, for a guy who likes those colours that is, my guy wouldn't wear it unless it were green and or purple

I think for when he comes 'home' to Michigan to visit (at Christmas time, which is cold....) I don't know. He said he would like one.
