The pattern gives instructions for you to knit your own scarf. The scarf is knit lengthwise in garter stitch. You will have lots of stitches on your needles but the short row wedges break up the length. Stitches are picked up from the selvedge edges for the borders. Techniques used include German short rows, crochet cast on, and twisted stitches for the herringbone borders.
The scarf can be knit in three sizes: small (approx. 110cm/43” by 14cm/5½”); medium (approx. 170cm/67” by 17cm/6½”); large (approx. 230cm/90” by 20cm/7½”) when knit at a gauge of 10 stitches and 26 rows to every 5 cm/2"in garter stitch using knitting needle size US 4 - 3.5 mm. To knit the scarf you will also require three 100g skeins of yarn and a crochet hook size 3.5 mm (E).
Pattern has been test knit.
This pattern is inspired by the central column on the Tardis console as seen in Doctor Who. The colour block wedges of the scarf (created with German short rows) represent the rising and falling of the column as the Tardis is in motion. A herringbone border at top and bottom suggests the movement of the Tardis through space and time.
