Help me find a scarf to match!

Argh…I can’t make a decision! I made my college age neighbor boy an earflap hat, and want a scarf to match. I can’t decide what to use, I don’t want it to “matchy”, the hat has a bit of color design on it and wanted a simple scarf to match. My sixteen year old son says simple, I thought something with a bit of texture maybe? He goes to school in Minnesota and wants something warm. Any suggestions would help, maybe something you made a man…thanks so much

This is a great scarf. It’s easy, fast and looks good in any color!
