I don't know Dave, but I want to help. And I know there isn't much time before the big reveal, so I'm offering a scarf that will be similar to one I made earlier this year but that hasn't actually been knit yet. (Give me a week or so and I can knock it out.) Instead of blues as in the image below, this one will be made with Lion Brand Incredible "Autumn Leaves". (You can see "Autumn Leaves" at
http://cache.lionbrand.com/yarns/incredible.htm).
Minimum bid $10.00. Auction closes at Midnight on October 31st. I will pay shipping as long as the scarf is going somewhere in the good ol' USA.
