Distinguished Gentleman's Neck Warmer Modifications

I decided to make this neck warmer for my father for when he rides his motorcycle in the winter. Unfortunately I didn't have a 16" size 7 circular needles and magic loop wasn't working for me, so I decided to knit it flat:

*Cast on 94 stitches
*Knit 4 rows
*Work pattern of RS/WS rows until entire neck warmer measures 6 1/2" ending after RS row
-RS:          K1*K2, YO, K2TOG* K1
-WS:         P1*P2TOG, YO, P2* P1
*Next row work K2*K2TOG, K2* around
*Knit 3 rows
*Bind off loosly,  sew edges together, and lightly block

I made it larger so it could cover the mouth and nose.

Doctor Who Scarf - Series 6, AKA: "A Christmas Carol" Scarf

With the first of June, a fresh start to Nerd Wars has begun! I decided to do a dissertation this time for Tournament 2:

Doctor Who Scarf - Series 6


This scarf was only featured momentarily in "A Christmas Carol," but attracted the attention to many Doctor Who fans, especially knitters who were familiar with the "Tom Baker Scarves."

Unfortunately we are unable to see the entire scarf, so I would assume that there will eventually be different variations for the ends of the scarf. Here is what I am planning:

*5 skeins Knit Picks Swish DK in Garnet Heather

*4 skins Knit Picks Swish DK in Grain Heather (I just learned this will be discontinued)

*3 skeins Knit Picks Swish DK in Dove Heather 

*size 5 knitting needles

(It was an estimate on the amount of yarn- I will have plenty left over)

Scarf Layout

I casted on 40 stitches which gave me a width of 7 inches.

Garnet 72 rows
