What is the best yarn for knitting a scarf for a guy. Okay, while I am not a knitter, i do crochet and have a few favorite!
Since michaels is a fairly large carft sotre, I would think they would have these....Lion Brand Wool Ease or Patton brand wool. They are both soft and both work up well. Not like the cheap stuff with a lot of nots or with a lot of splices. I have used both and am a fan of both. Now for color, I would choose earth tones. Wool Ease comes in both the standard weight which is called worsted as well as the chunky weight. Hope this helps! Since you are a beginner, look for an interactive CD called "Knitting Made EAsy" while you are at Michaels. Joanns has a coupon you can get online for 40% off which would come in handy for you.

It’s a simple pattern featuring single crochet spaced apart by single chains. The crochet pattern creates a sleek, solid scarf that isn’t too heavy. I’ve used a combination of red, ivory tweed and grey yarn to create a modern scarf for a man or woman. Since I tend to be someone who can easily start and stop projects, I worried that I might not be able to produce all five scarves as promised within the project deadline.
However, I’ve been enjoying the crochet so much that I’m ahead of schedule (and already thinking ahead to future projects!). This scarf came together quickly one morning while I listened to the news on TV and occasionally glanced at the rainy day outside.
