I got my book-Ravenclaw scarf finished in time for the movie yesterday. Go me!

It's the full version of scarf -- 14 bars altogether, and longer than I am tall...

Ravenclaw Scarf 80 stitches round, this scarf was made following the atypically.knit pattern. I only cast on 80 stitches, and used a Montadale wool and mohair yarn from a local farm.

I have a hank and a half of the blue left, and half a hank of the bronze. I'm either going to make a tam, or pair of gloves. We'll see what works out.

Having seen the movie twice now, I'm rather wanting to make one of those all-house Hogwarts scarves. They're rather nifty, but also very dark and subdued, being mostly black.

Oooo, that came out very nicely. It also looks very warm. :D And is that you? You look so happy and cute. And from what I know of you, you're definitely a Ravenclaw. :D

Yes, that's me. I'm wearing blue and tan in that picture, because gblvr teased me something awful the day before because I was wearing a red sweater to the movie.

Unfortunately, I'm still getting over a cold, and I really needed the scarf at the theater -- they kept it really cold. And even a pound of wool wasn't enough!
