Which way uses less? If either?

It uses the same. But width-wise looks better and isn't as likely to end up lopsided.

Okay, while I am not a knitter, i do crochet and have a few favorite! Since michaels is a fairly large carft sotre, I would think they would have these....Lion Brand Wool Ease or Patton brand wool. They are both soft and both work up well. Not like the cheap stuff with a lot of nots or with a lot of splices. I have used both and am a fan of both. Now for color, I would choose earth tones. How about a gray or a chestnut? Nav blue or forest green? If I remember correctly, Pattons has some nice grays, blues and camels. With a mans scarf, since most of them do not color coordinate well, neutrals usually work best and earthtones would fall into that category. What color is is heavy winter coat? What color is his favorite coat? Does he have a dress coat that he wears? If you could come up with a color that would either blend or contrast nicely, that would be the color to use. Oh, Pattons has a nice charcoal as well. Wool Ease comes in both the standard weight which is called worsted as well as the chunky weight. The thicker one is called Wool Ease Chunky and Wool Ease Thick and Quick! Hope this helps! i asked my girlfriend from work about a pattern and she suggests you knit a ribbed scarf with a knit two and pearl two. Since you are a beginner, look for an interactive CD called "Knitting Made EAsy" while you are at Michaels. I usually go to Joanns myself and it is $6.99 for one. It is put out by Red Heart yarn which is made by Coats and Clark. Joanns has a coupon you can get online for 40% off which would come in handy for you. Good luck with your project and I am sure you will hear from all of the knitters soon! If you have any questions, do not hesitate to post them. Enjoy!

Same amount -- but lengthwise is SO boring and it is easier to drop a stitch by not paying attention because it is SO long!

Either way, you will need the same amount of yarn.
