Ok Here We Go!
After much searching I have found pattern and yarn to suit my recipient, I think. This is a 70% wool, 30% soy yarn whose colors are awesome. Earth tones as specified. I'm loving it... (I'm also loving the way the colors are falling into squares!! Didja see that??? Everyone at work is asking me how I'm doing it.)
At first you would think this is the pattern out of the ScarfStyle book, Lady Eleanor. Tis not! It's her cousin, Contessa Garter du lac. I.E. a VERY long Garterlac dishcloth!! Dave (the knitting genius) and his amazing pattern that has no right or wrong side! You see, I'm not fond of having to make sure if my scarf's right side is showing. For as with most? It will always be the wrong side!!
I am in awe. People are finished with their scarves already!! In between jobs and at lunch is the only time I get to knit! But I'm loving it! Can't wait to get this finished so I can send it off... It's going somewhere cold and high!

Brilliant idea! Lucky pal you have there! Dave is a genius - as you are for taking that thought and turning it into a scarf. I love knitting those dishcloths of his.
Wow! What yarn is that, Tapestry? Karaoke? I LOVE it! What a marvelous pattern, and what a gorgeous scarf. Two big thumbs up!
Actually I got the yarn at Michaels craft store of all places. Its a Paton 70% wool 30% soy yarn and oohhh boy is it soft! Apparently some of the craft store chains are picking up some better quality fibers
