You know, I never had that early, unapologetically fannish stage where I could get enthusiastic about the scarf, and it's refreshing actually. Sorry, this sounds patronizing now that I hear myself, that's not what I'm really saying. Anyway, first of all, I never saw Who till I was over 20, and when I did join a fan group, by my late 20s, they were all jaded and sarcastic and made fun of the fans who went all gooey over the scarf.
I appreciate sarcasm but also being able to let loose and get enthusiastic without worrying about reviews from others.
I hope Shrody is a witty little knitter.

huh? Some people confuse me, jaded and sarcastic or not, fans have got to stick together and not make fun of each others' ambitions!
Also, the scarf IS awesome win. I learned how to knit on behalf of the scarf.

My family used to make fun of my scarf-fettish.  Even when I was wearing a scarf just because it was COLD out, they'd poke me by saying, "Oh, so I see you're dressing like your hero today." I'd be like, "No... I'm just chilly." But they'd roll their eyes. Ah well. Let them laugh. The power of the scarf is too good for them. |

We should start a fundraiser, then.  "Donate money to the "knit Aldy a who-scarf fund!" We could have membership cards and EVERYTHING! |

Let's hear it for the Whovian knitting club! I'd always meant to knit, but never actually had a "good" reason for it until now.
In the meantime, we went to dinner and I was bored waiting for the food, so I've tatoo-ed the S12 scarf on my arm using a variety of sharpies rubbed together to get the colours right.
Maybe I ought to post pictures. It's oddly amusing.
