Notes

I did it!!! I finished and it’s amazing! So beautiful…these colors are just so perfect together. Very happy! Handsome hubby modelling… he is 6’3” tall… scarf is 14’ long. Wow!
796 rows total!!
Takes about 14 hours (give or take a lot…) to complete.

So… I’ve been wanting to make a Doctor Who Scarf for ages - but have dreaded the garter stitch monotony. I also have been putting off exercising on the stationary bike (also monotonous)…but what if I combined the two?!! How exciting!! I’m only going to work on this scarf when I’m riding the stationary bike… maybe a block of color each day to mix it up? I’ll let you know how it goes!
*****
Day 1: c/o 35 - 16 rows of toffee - done! Takes me about a minute to do one row. Burgundy and Brick done while riding the recumbent bike. The rest just out of excitement for the project! This yarn is perfect and gorgeous for the project…
Day 2: green and burgundy rows
6/6: Finally picked this back up. Such a beautiful scarf…
*****
Ok - so I didn’t exercise every time I knit this scarf. It’s not quite as easy as I had hoped. However, I already am thinking about making another - and will try, again, to make it my exercise scarf!
:-)

12/6/13: Added fringe/tassels. 12 tassels per end - each tassel has 1 of each color - about 16” long - attach every 3 sts to bottom. Took less than an hour to do!
