Doctor who scarf!

Ok! So this is my latest project! As my Dad says, I don't do things by halves. I couldn't just do a simple short scarf with one colour oh no! I had to go and do a huge, drape along the floor length scarf! Specifically the fourth doctor's scarf which was Tom Baker!
Here's how it's looking so far. I'm not a particularly fast knitter so it takes a while for it to grow. But hey! I should have it done by next Christmas lol. I was thinking that in the summer months when it's too hot to wear it (although with the summers we get I might have to rethink that last statement... Oh listen to me! That was so typically british!) I might drape it on my wall as a sort of knitted display. It just seems a shame to spend so much time making it only to wear it for a sort time you know. Don't worry, I won't show you an update of how it's going every week cos that would be well boring and not too dissimilar to watching paint dry!
I'll just show it to you every now and again.

Yes and it was perfect thank you! The scarf would have been an absolute disaster without it. That I am certain of!

Considering that was the only gold wool in JL............

I think it was the perfect gold wool we could have gotten for the scarf so that was lucky wasn't it!

Yeah I love them too! Especially the doctors long scarf! It's going pretty well so far but I bet it's going to take me AGES to finish it. My nana's up andd likes to knit but has discovered that I actually knit pretty uniquely! Something to do with the way I wrap the wool round the needle I think! She says the way it's turned out though by doing it this way makes it look quite professional! I didn't even realise I was doing it! x
