FIT FOR A MAN

If you're like me, you always bave trouble finding knitwear the men in your life will consent to wear. But when my friend set sail for frozen Utab, I knew I bad to equip bim with a scarf that would be Warm and wearable. So bere it is—a scarf thbat's fit for a man! Double seed stitch diamonds suggest a classic and trendy argyle pattern. The thick border provides a stable edge. Best of all, the single color speaks of maturity, wbile tbe subtle diamonds bint at a wilder side.
