Team Spirit Scarf

Summer is sure going by fast. Saturday night I knit while watching the Packer preseason game so you know fall will be here before you know it. This month’s pattern will be a quick knit wool scarf in your favorite team’s or school’s colors. I made it for an eighth grade graduation gift for a friend’s daughter in the Oak Creek High School colors - blue and white. It would make a nice Christmas gift for a Badger fan in red and white or a Packer fan in green and gold.
