Wool Week 2016: renewing the knitted graffiti

I've decided to do some form of 'wool work' – and blog about it – every day this week, for my own personal celebration of Wool Week.
Today I've updated the knitted graffiti on my local lamppost.
The previous pieces have been out there for over a year and it was impressive to see just how robustly they'd withstood the weather. Slight fading on the grey/blue big wool, crispiness on the red eyelash yarn, and a couple of leaves tucked in.
And on a more personal note, I've pinned down exactly what set of scarf my OH would like me to knit for him: about 6ft long, quite narrow, in garter-stitch welt, navy blue. I'll be casting on soon...
