I'd love to knit another one...Anyone got the pattern laying around?

Hope this is in the right forum, btw. Is it?

Beats me--if it isn't they'll move it for you.

Ask Wind-Whisper about making the scarves, Mel'! She used to have more than one in the good ol' days.

Hm.. this should probably be in Chatty Kathy, actually. ^^

Unless of course you'd like to make an entire thread dedicated to Four's Scarf? xD
I mean, it's been around for ages, and there's enough of them, so I don't see why not. Not to mention our guild mascot is a Scarf_Monster. 3nodding xd

I'd be interested in finding the pattern too - I knit decently enough and it'd be fun to try. =3

Actualy, I have a scarf the same size (wrong colors) as his and it only too from July to early December.

There is a website with all the patterns out there somewhere. I think it's doctorwhoscarf.com, or something like that. It covers not only the original but also all the variations on it as they had to cut bits off.

gonk Drat it, I can't find that thread anywhere where I started talking about the scarf I started making with a Knifty Knitter knitting hoop at least a year ago. I was making reports of its length every so often & I yelled a lot when I spilled some soy sauce & wasabi on it. That was back when we called Hairy "sushi man" because he was wearing the (then new) squid set.

Oh, well. Anybody finds it, I can update it. Meanwhile, I'll report here that after many spurts of work on it, I have finally finished the knitting work tonight! I measured it & it is 21 feet long. xd No fringe yet.
I finished it to wear to a local con over in Greensboro, NC tomorrow called WTH Con. It's FREE ( whee ) and some members of the Carolina Gaia guild are gonna get together & meet for the first time IRL there!
Unfortunately, the forecast is for temperatures in the 60's. gonk cry so I won't be wearing that scarf long!

Oooh.. I have one of those Knifty Knitter things. Quite nice. 3nodding

21 feet?! Ooooooh you must take a picture of it, pretty please?
I've got this blue and purple looking thing but it's not really scarfy.. more like scarf gone bad... it's pretty and decently long considering I doubled the yarn when I made it on the loom and then took two and put them together side-by-side and added it to another two-part.. it's pretty but not what I need. whee

Yeaaaah... there is that one little aspect.

*giggles at Whatsit's suggestion*

I was thinking more along the lines of getting a very long white scarf, then dying it in the pattern of one of the Scarves. xD
Not the same as an actual Scarf, but close enough.. if I dressed as the Doctor for break-the-dresscode week.. nobody would know what on earth I was... except maybe one or two of the teachers. xD

You could always invest in a Knitting machine, especially if you knit quite a bit. After hand-knitting two sweaters and a (non-Tom Baker, but equally long) scarf last winter, a machine is looking more and more attractive. It looks like you could turn out a Doctor Who scarf in about a day.

Getting a long white scarf is a challenge, too, probably. Take it from someone who wants to cosplay Romana II's Destiny of the Daleks outfit.

My mom is making one and I didn't even know! I saw it when I visited her on Easter. It is not very long yet, just about 1 meter, but nevertheless... Hooray for 4th scarf!!!

I haz a 4th doctor scarf ^^ isi made it for me (for those who remember her)
It's long enough that five people can wear it at once, when one person wears it it touches the ground on both sides and makes an ankle-length loop... and it's only 2/3 of the length! Tom baker is one tall chappie.
