He needs a pair of camouflage ankle warmers.
These are fun to knit. It's fascinating to watch the greens and tans and browns and blacks meld into a pair of cool (no, not cool, but warm) ankle warmers.
If the guy in your life has cold feet, maybe he needs a pair of camouflage ankle warmers.
Still looking for Bill Murray, I have a prize-winning first chapter of a book, with a starring role for Bill. If you can get me a lunch date with Bill, I'll try to get you a bit role in the movie.

EVERYBODY NEEDS A PAIR -- MAYBE TWO
Don't go around all winter with freezing ankles. You know the feeling -- your toes may be, well, not warm and comfy, at a temperature barly tolerable, but your ankles . . . with only the thin protection of your socks . . . while the frigid winds whip under your pants cuff . . . it's enough to shiver your timbers.
Your ankles need a pair of ankle warmers. Where can you get ankle warmers? I knit mine. Any color I want.
My favorite pair are blue. I dressed hastily one morning. Instead of hiding my ankle warmers under the cuff of my socks, I pulled them up over the legs of my jeans. Thought I looked dumb. Kept my boots under the table. Even in a drafty room, my ankles stayed warm. Was so relaxed, I forgot I was wearing them.
We engaged in friendly conversation when we rose to depart. I was surprised at Marian's question: "Where did you get your legwarmers?"
My reply: "What color do you want?"
Blue is her favorite color as well. I knit two pairs, one pair slightly bigger. Now Marian can be toasty warm, top to bottom. Like me.
