Few guys I know want their knitted scarves long and fancy, instead they always ask for something short, soft, and machine washable. Storm Scarf meets their standards. It can be comfortably tucked under a winter coat, and does not take much space when taken off. The two-color mini cables make it a quick and fun project for you--great as a last-minute gift item!
