Odd Uses for the Patterns
Not everyone can pull off wearing a nine to twenty-six foot long knitted accessory. And there will be times when you want to show your fannish preferences in a more subtle way.
These patterns are here to help you.
Scarf Ties
Here’s a pattern for a Season Twelve man’s necktie in fingering weight Brown Sheep Nature Spun.
It’s only slightly more complicated to knit than a scarf; there are selvage stitches to keep the edges tidy, and it is in very thin yarn on very small needles.
You will have a lot of yarn left over to try some of the other patterns on this page.

I’m thinking about a Season 18 tie, but in silk rather than chenille.
I’ll be experimenting with it over the next several months.
Kids, Babies & Doll Sized Scarves
Then there are the kids and baby sized versions of the Scarf. . .
Who doesn’t know someone with a teddy bear that could use a scarf?
These are scaled down versions of the Scarf; the Baby size is about four feet long, and about three inches wide, the Kid size is about seven feet long and about seven inches wide.

Scarf Socks and Stockings
I saw a version of this on Ravelry.com and just had to do a pair.
These are toe-up thigh high stockings that will need a pair of garters to keep up.
You can also start at the toe, go as high as you wish and then do a few inches of ribbing to hold them up.

The Blue Variant
There is a non-canon, but very popular, version of the Sixth Doctor’s Multicolored jacket in nothing but blues.
Several people have knitted a ‘Blue Variant’ of the brown scarf (and there’s at least one gray scale version).
This is mine.
Kyrina on LiveJournal was the direct inspiration for this pattern.
