Resident Night Mare
I thought I'd create a thread for items I've knitted, some related to fandoms, some not. Hope you like it.
My first finish of the year. Kind of cheated, because I started this last fall, but had to stop to do holiday stuff.
I've been a confirmed Hufflepuff for years, but never made anything for myself because the bright yellow/black combo didn't look good on me. When Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them came out, with its more muted, vintage color for Newt's scarf, I thought I could wear that. This is my take on it.
I used two strands of fingering weight wool for each color to create the marled look of the movie scarf. As for the pattern, I followed the basic Hogwarts scarf from Lauren Kent, with a few changes - I cast on 50 stitches and knit each band for 19 rounds. I did 12 grey and 11 gold, like the movie, but mine is a lot longer than Newt's; with the fringe, it reaches to my knees when I drape it over my neck. I like to wrap my scarf, though, so I'm good with that.
As you can see in the second picture, it is also Raven-approved.
