While certainly not the...prettiest...of color schemes, I rather enjoyed the straightforward simplicity of this design. Literally just straight rows of knitting. No mid-row color changes. No post-knitting embroidery to neaten up the diagonals. And fewer ends to weave in, which is always a plus.
I felt I had to include this design with my other Trekkie scarves, because Wesley's uniform has become somewhat iconic amongst fans, despite being rather hideous. Keeping in mind that this was a sci-fi show from the '90s, and there were quite a few fashion atrocities throughout, it does seem that poor Wesley bears the brunt of them. I kind of wonder if Wil Wheaton did something at one point to piss off the costume designer...
