In which I bring the geek...

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 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.

No, it doesn't take much at all. If you watch the movie again, keep an eye on Neville. He's wearing one of those scarves most of the time, and for sure during the Second Task.

...what, he's not as much of a die-hard pro-Gryffindor as everyone else? *amused*

Neville is a woobie. And Dean was wearing one too.

Ah, so all-house scarves are the scarf of choice for discriminating non-rapid Potterettes? ^_^
