Project: Chunky Knit Scarf

I started this scarf about 2 weeks ago. The yarn is Lion Brand WoolEase Chunky, color-Spice. I bought 2 skeins, but with the thick yarn and large needles (size 11), it knitted to over 70" with just one skein. The stitch pattern is something called "Broken Garter Stitch", which has a row of K1P1, then 2 rows of K, then repeat. I like it a lot. It's simple, but definately more interesting than plain garter stitch.

The scarf will be a gift for my friend K.C. He works the parking lot next door to my old Starbucks, across from Wrigley Field. He would always come in for water and chat for a bit. He's good people, and I wanted to make him a nice warm scarf since he works outside during the coldest months. I hope he likes it.
