This is usually in reference to sweaters because by the time you finish it, you've broken up with said boyfriend.<br /><br />But, I made my now-husband a scarf when we were still dating...but I had a ring on my finger so I figured I was safe.Renee Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12513788818111774118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2828573965733422544.post-90057382670017566482011-11-22T14:13:40.299+00:002011-11-22T14:13:40.299+00:00I am knitting a hat for my husband with the exact ...I am knitting a hat for my husband with the exact same yarn, in what looks like the same color!
