Wednesdays Are For Knitting: Len’s Scarf
Knitting a scarf is an epic undertaking. It’s even more epic when the person you are knitting it for is a guy who is 6 foot 3. Yeah.
So, this scarf? It took a while. Almost 2 months, in fact. It was worth all the boredom, though, when I gave it to my cousin Len last Wednesday night and he wrapped it around his neck. And remarked about how soft it is. And how nice and long it is. And how store bought scarves are a) expensive and b) not nearly as nice as those that are knit for you by someone who loves you.
He gets it.
And that’s why he gets the hand knits.

Just perfect Carole. Such a great pattern, lucky Len!
Scarves do seem to take forever.
Lovely scarf and an equally lovely cousin, who understands and is appreciative!
Lovely scarf! Len is definitely knit-worthy, and that’s saying something for a guy that’s 6 foot 3. My sons aren’t exceptionally tall, but they both wear size 14 shoes, so I always say that knitting socks for them shows just how much I love them.
I love knitting that scarf. I have knit many. Hope you are feeling better.
He is the perfect recipient. The scarf is beautiful, and so is the love behind it.
That scarf has warmth and love written all over it!
Somebody worthy of hand knits – I love it. And I’m glad he loves his scarf. It looks so warm and cozy. Perfect for a day like today.
Yep. He’s noteworthy.
Stupid autocorrect. I meant “knitworthy”.
it’s gorgeous! giving a special handknit to someone who appreciates it is the best!
Good for Len! People (non-knitters) who appreciate hand knits are not as plentiful as they should be.
Yes he does get it! Lovely scarf!
Lovely hitcher! Knitworthy relative.
