Tis the season for gift knitting

And I actually finished one item.

The first Noro Striped Scarf.
I said the first because just like everybody else I caught the Noro Striped Scarf bug. I am heading to my LYS after work today to get some more silk garden. This is a quick knit and makes a perfect gift.

I started another gift with no recipient in mind yet. But when I saw this at Uniquites I could not stop myself.
This is a kit with cashmere yarn to knit a manly scarf for your man. Granted, my man has yet to be found, but the cashmere and the deep brown color beckoned, and I gave in. The kit comes with seven patterns, but I had another in mind. Here is a better picture.

The Irish Hiking Scarf
Sigh. Now if my muse will only fine me my man.
