Does anyone know of a cute scarf for someone in the Red Hat Society? Would fun fur in red and purple be a good choice?

I seem to recall the Lionbrand website having a bunch, but I can't find them now. Might want to check there.

I found this, so you're on the right track. The women that I know who participate in the Red Hat Society seem to like fun things, so I think it would be a great idea.

I like that one! I have never seen that yarn in the stores though, so would have to order it online. That's the kind of "fun" scarf I'm looking for.

When I first started knitting, I made a scarf for my mom's friend Cathering (a.k.a "RedHatBabe" as her nickname is Babe). I used a Purple boucle and a Red eyelash (fun fur). She LOVED it! I am totally behind in a little stocking stuffer I intended to finish and give to my mom for Babe...it's a Lion pattern for a fun fur makeup bag. My mom is a "glitzy" gramma and I made one is silver glitterspun and festive fur, and another in black. I'm doing one for Babe in red glitterspun and purple Bernat disco. The pattern is here (http://cache.lionbrand.com/patterns/kfestivef-purse.html?noImages=0)

Binky, when you made the scarf, did you knit the two colors together at the same time? I love the little bag!

Jackie,
Yeppers, I used the two colors together. It gave it a nifty undertone of purple with the fun lashes of red. If I remember right I used size 19 needles and bout 8 stitches wide.
