The Scarf

Anyone that knows me well knows that during the cold months I pull out a red plaid scarf and wear it the entire winter. My mother wore it in college and somehow I took it as my own during high school.

I just got it back from the dry cleaner and I'll admit to being slightly worried the entire time that it would get lost or ruined. After all, it's the only thing that comes close to a security blanket for me.

I did knit myself a scarf when I was around 14-16 years old. It's the yellow one that I have wrapped around my head for some reason. It came out really crooked and I think I might still have it wrapped away somewhere. It will be the only scarf I ever make.

    I remember that scarf! Talk about a good quality item... how old is it again? Holy Cow!

    True! It is great quality Pendleton wool. It is a little over 40 years old now and looks brand new, minus a little rip I made in it this week taking the darn dry cleaning staple out. I really should send a picture to Pendleton and share the story.
