What gorgeousness! Just give the Kureyon scarf a very quick wash in something gentle (I use Ecover) and it will blossom into luscious softness: promise. (My husband wouldn't have scarves made out of anything else, until we discovered Silk Garden.

Love the Noro one... apparently it does soften up after a wash.
And I've posted about that blog challenge... daft as it may be ;)

Love that Kureyon scarf - oh those colours.......
And can imagine how soft the Jaeger cable scarf feels too. Not as soft as a rabbit though ;)
The Kureyon will soften considerably after washing though I don't wear it next to my skin so let us all know how it goes.

ohhhh you've been busy. Great scarves, ots about that time again to start thinking about winter knits huh YUCK! Love the IHS, Moose is the same way with his leather jacket and swears it is warmer than anything else but I don't know!!!

Nice trio of scarves. I bet your friend's going to love the pink crocheted one. I can just imagine the wonderful squishiness of the black IHS in the Jaeger Shetland Aran and, as for the MD scarf - the colours look gorgeous - I really like how the Noro yarns knit up for the MD projects but shame that a lot of it is not very soft - I've also heard that it gets softer as you wash it though.

Your scarves are beautiful! I hope that your friend really enjoys her scarf, beautiful colour and crochet there... As for Mr Show Off his scarf is lovely too and I am sure it will keep him VERY warm! :) The noro scarf is lovely colours and knitting, though I am sure I heard somewhere the more you wash it the softer its meant to get? Who knows! Hey, wheres the pictures of your orange sweaters? :)

I'm thinking I should start on xmas presents now and scarves are definitely the way forward. What happened to the weather?

Love the scarves, particularly the IHS (great pattern for a bloke's scarf!).
Kureyon does soften up somewhat when washed, although even then it might still be a bit scratchy to wear around the neck. I made a scarf with it earlier this year but next tiem I'd use Silk Garden or similar :-)

Love the photos - I find it almost impossible to be creative when photographing long, flat rectangles! Try washing the Noro Kureyon in baby shampoo.
