(and isn't the reverse side fabulous as well?)

This scarflet shall soon be on its merry way across the continent to a surprise recipient!

i REALLY love this! i'm really into short, collar-like scarves right now, and the buttons on this makes it even better. do you think you'll write up a pattern for this?
The scarf looks great! I made one myself and if I may offer a word of advice? I'm not sure how tight fitting yours will be, but mine certainly needs a button on the back side to hold the other end in its place. Right now, it tends to creep up so the scarf isn't buttoned at an angle, but like a tube.
Super cute, great job! The garter stitch border and buttons accent it perfectly!
Ab Fab! Love the colour choice- it really makes it pop.
Cute scarf!
Counget for your first knitting project of the 2008!
What lovely cables. It's a very fetching scarflet.
beautiful!
Oh I love it! The color is soo pretty.
I have a head model that has suffered severe trauma as well.. and has been stepped on a few times too.
so good!
i love the stitch pattern you chose.
Hahaha "apply within"--that made me smile. I enjoy your blog a lot! Everything you've made is gorgeous and is photographed beautifully--hopefully the recipient of your Malabrigo goodness loves it as much as me!
OOOH. I want one. It's perfect!
I LOVE this!!! Any chance you'll be selling the pattern or something? I would love to knit this up!!!!

This is fabulous - the colour, the texture and as you say the buttons!!
