My First Lace Scarf

I always thought that my first lace scarf would be something fancy but as I joined this project called "Meestevahetus" - "Men Swap" I decided to knit a simple lace scarf...
as a gift...
for a man...
seriously...
'cause You know men tend to forget all kind of anniversaries and stuff like that. Therefore I knitted this simple scarf just in case. I thought: "Taking part in this project is a present to one's husband, therefore it would be nice if that husband has also something to give. If the one I'm making Valentine's day gift already has a gift to his wife, it's wonderful and he can add something simple to his gift. But if he forgot the present, it's perfect 'cause he can give his wife that scarf." By the way, it took ages to write this part, I hope it makes sense :D

The one I had to make something, likes havin sauna and therefore I made this big mug for him. The text in blue is in Estonian, translation: "On Saturday evenings one can have three warm things: warm sauna, warm porridge, warm woman".





When I was thinking what I should give to a stranger, I was sure I'd avoid hearts, but.. Can You see the handles as two sides of heart? And my Mother said a minute ago that the woman's bottom looks like a heart.

And there's more. As you all know, one can't win someone's heart using force. Gentle moves guarantee that the heart will be his/her. Therefore I made this wire puzzle for my stranger :D
