I've been naughty on the whose '30 Days of craft photos' plan, haven't I? I shall make up for it in the next couple of weeks!
So, here is the Doctor Watson scarf you have read about, and heard about if you listen to
Knitzors. If you haven't then I shall explain.
Whilst watching Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows at the cinema, Craig mentioned how much he liked Watson's scarf, the next day we popped into our local yarn shop and bought the yarn, he chose the colours he wanted, being green and brown.
(Doesn't Craig look adorable?)
The original pattern can be found
here, and is a great base pattern, which didn't work out for me so I made a few alterations.
You can read my pattern below:
You will need:
100g ball of DK in Brown
100g ball of DK in White
100g ball of DK in Green (I used Tivoli Eurospun Block Buster DK)
