Cool scarf on Knitty

I really liked the scarf on the "cover" of Knitty this month (my favorite online knitting magazine). I might make it, though none of the men I might give this to as a gift (boyfriend, son, nephew, etc) actually wears scarves. So I might make it for myself. I love the color and the way the yarn really enhances the pattern--gives it that very warm-autumn-fire sensibility.
