I have a friend with COPD who could probably use a good winter scarf. What fiber or brand would you reccommend? I'd like this to be really special.

Gansey sleeves by Wooly

acrlic yarn by Dixie Sugar

A couple of FOs by JCT

Preconceptions by Wooly
Grrrr. At "Back to School" day Thursday my son's teacher said (in front of about half of the third grade parents) something like "And we're sure is going to _dress up_ and demonstrate all her quaint spinning and knitting skills this year at our Prairie Days re-enactment." This of course focused...
