The customer told me that both recipients like earthy tones.
So bearing that in mind, I chose a taupe wool from my stash. The wool was purchased at a rummage sale, and it appears to be at least 10 years old...
Thankfully, it's not too fragile.
(I've got beautiful purple wool that's ancient, but it breaks easily. So I mix it with a new, and sturdy wool...)
I got started on the scarf last night, and I'm keeping the pattern simple, but detailed enough, to show a pattern. I'm mostly using a moss stitch, but I've added a "K3, P1" pattern in one section, and St st section, as well.
I like moss stitch for scarves, because there's no curling at the edges.
I'll write out the pattern at a later date (because, yes...it is an original...)
