Description A progress report on The Scarf.

As you can tell from the excellent, professional-style photography, I'm proceeding nicely. I 'll have it done by next winter, which is fine; my fault for starting so late.

The metal ruler is 15 inches, so I have about 33 inches so far.
One/fifth the way done!

I'm putting my own spin on it.

I need one of these--preferably before October, but I've no idea how! I don't have the patience to knit (Number Six's influence on me) and I've no money with which to aquire one! My only knitting teacher's a lefty which is a problem.

I just wish I could magically know how to knit.

Looks like it's going well though!

Do what I did; get some stuff from a dollar store (doesn't hurt to go cheap when learning; if it messes up, you're not out a lot of money), and get some crafts books from the library.
It's a LOT easier than you might think.

...especially after that comment Billy made:

Joe (manager), explains something.
Two of the three new employees:
Billy: "You should have hired Mira. She's as smart as all of us combined."
Me (who wasn't there at the time, but heard this story):

Manager Joe needs to have a bit of a reality check; why else would someone who can do the job, not be hired?

Because I "didn't have enough work experience", evidently.

But how am I supposed to get job experience if no one gives me a job because I don't have job experience? That's what I'd like to know.

I want to learn how to knit properly. Then I could make my own scarf!!!
I want one that's a full 15 feet! How long's yours going to be? yours is really amazing!

Other than that me and my friend(s) are planning on cosplaying doctor who characters to london so we can go to the world's only doctor who shop opposite East Ham tube station (MEMORISED!) and generally have a good day. My friend has a friend who's a fast knitter and she's gonna make us a scarf!!! Or two... I'm so keeping it when it's done!

I mean really, if you're going to praise the one creator of Time Lord society, you've got to at least acknowledge Omega. (Who's tied with the Master for my favourite DW villain!)

I haven't seen him but I've read about him on wiki. he sounds so cool! omega, rassilon and that other one that doesn't really have a name

darksporechild In reply to abolatinge [2009-02-03 22:17:37 +0000 UTC]

meh, the Other doesn't count in my opinion because it was a piece of script editor story arc which never came to fruition on television. Cartmel Masterplan, so they say.

But Omega pwns.

I'm planning on 15 feet, but between 12 and 15 will be fine.

^^ I know!!!! *bounce*

you should keep going to 15 feet! then you'd have a proper scarf! I can't wait to see the finished product.

Carthoris In reply to abolatinge [2009-01-25 15:18:38 +0000 UTC]

Don't worry, you will.

I'm going to at *least* 15; not too much longer, as I don't want it to look ridiculous.

my sister is hyperventilating over the thought of the finished product. She plans to steal it from you, i suggest upgrading your security systems. just some friendly advice.

I'll be sure to make a note of it.

In fact, when it's done, I plan on being photographed wearing it, so she can drool over the overall effect of the scarfy-ness.
