Doctor Who Scarf: finished!

[vilakins]

I finally finished my Doctor Who scarf yesterday with three days to spare (the knit-a-long finshes with the year). It's a modified pattern in which I used Fibonacci numbers, rounding down if they were odd, so all the stripes are 8, 12, 20, or 34 rows. This also made it the length I wanted, just to my knees. I'm enough of a klutz not to want anything more I can trip over.



The best range I could find didn't have a yellow, so I used orange. There's also a grey row in there which shouldn't be in an S14 scarf, but I like it.


The scarf over a railing. Do I have enough tassels? I suppose I could add some between the existing ones.

If I look a bit hunchbacked in these photos, it's because Greg took the photos from up the steps. :-P


A mosaic of me in scarf, me with hat and sonic screwdriver, and covering three fandoms in knit with Jayne hat (made by reapermum) and Blake's 7 teleport bracelet (pattern by wolfma). Bwahahaha!

I was going to wear my brown corduroy jacket with the hat, but it's summer here and I got hot enough already in the scarf. It took me a while to cool down after that. :-P

Go you, and your knitwear crossover madness!

Brilliant. I like the Fibonacci touch.

You're so wonderfully crafty and talented - drawing, jewelry-making, knitting, writing, to name a few. The scarf is cute as anything, and you in all your knitted glory are cute as a button. :)

Oh, that is awesome! Go you, getting it all finished! And I do love those pictures. :)

Yay! Wow!

Now I want to write about the Fourth Doctor on the Liberator. I haven't seen Firefly (ducks) so I can't write that one into it!

Very nice! I used to knit when I was younger, but would be hopeless at it now. :-p

It's all lovely! I don't think it needs any more tassels. The Fibonacci number idea was genius. :^)

Absolutely smashing - you can substitute here and there now!!!!!

Well done, it's not the difficulty of that pattern but the amount of it that deserves praise. It's all so neat and even tensioned, I gather from other replies that you have been knitting for more than a year just not recently it's often difficult to get your tension right after a break but you have done it. And no I don't think you need more tassels, they look just right to me.

WOWOWOOWOWWWW! Hhaha I' so jealous of your tassels, they look fabulous, and the fangirl enseble wins. I go bak to college today so hopefully my bracelet will be there and I shall go to Starbucks in my geeky wonderfulness. What's next?

oh it's fantastic!

The scarf does look good. Your idea of using the Fibonacci series has left the stripes in pleasing proportions.

[kalinda001.livejournal.com]

That's wonderful!

Lovely scarf! Having it this "short" also helps with not getting this beautiful thing dirty too quickly, I think. And I like your hair!

Most excellent!
