But, like you said people like different things, and people are different sizes. WOW, really 9 feet....one could wrap multiple times in it.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141251905909903805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5538334659901064721.post-11967753691738618772011-05-01T15:45:27.330-04:002011-05-01T15:45:27.330-04:00I think in one post 60" was mentioned for len...I think in one post 60" was mentioned for length, but of course for a scarf there is really no "bad" length. Some prefer them short so they don't get caught in things and are just tucked into a jacket. Others like to wrap around once or twice. I'm working presently on a Doctor Who scarf and it is supposed to be NINE feet long. That will be the longest I've ever made.Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08439303528712333600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5538334659901064721.post-80246545783694930652009-10-24T22:13:49.735-04:002009-10-24T22:13:49.735-04:00Bunny, I'm anxious to try Linda's knit wit...Bunny, I'm anxious to try Linda's knit with 2 needle pattern too.<br /><br />Beth, thanks bunches for working towards those men under the bridge. I make most of mine about 6 ft long, and and about 7-8 inches wide; but there is not set size. Just what you think would work well for a man.<br /><br />Thanks Ladies.<br />SandySandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141251905909903805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5538334659901064721.post-24472759762401400992009-10-24T17:18:29.702-04:002009-10-24T17:18:29.702-04:00I'm making all my scarves geared toward colors...I'm making all my scarves geared toward colors for men.

Here's the link...<br />http://babysurprise0.tripod.com/id50.html<br />or you can just google it. I make them on size six or size eight needles, depending on if the yarn is sport weight, or worsted, and I use the child size pattern that starts with 28 stitches. The adult ones seem to come out *huge* for me! But would probably be best for guys hands! And the garter stitch makes them good and thick for extra warmth! I *love* these mittens. And they are well tested by my five kiddo's and they all give them a big thumbs up!!! That's my best test for likeability! :-)Linda in FLhttp://spinner-mom.xanga.com/noreply@blogger.com
