Holiday Season Update!!

Hello! Things have been going really well for me in the geeky knits arena! I've been totally reppin' my gear in style~
Got my personal Super Mario hat, my original LoZ scarf, my Portal earrings and my Mario 3 hoodie! Great day.


Here's what I've been working on!

Fun work with initials! I really enjoyed creating that ampersand.

Gorgeous LoZ scarf, definitely my most popular purchase by far, and in the green base!

A new take on the Sailor Moon scarf!

Modeling the scarf. I'm in love with that pale blue!


I'm also working on a pair of Street Fighter gloves for a friend's boyfriend! Exciting!! So I'll be super busy through the middle to end of January, and then I plan on making some big changes to my Etsy store. It will be AWESOME.

Happy geeking!

Charts!

Okay, so I've decided to post a few charts per requests! I've updated them since my original Zelda scarf.


I think they've been modified quite nicely. The gray is actually white stitches, I just made it gray to see the edge.


Same goes for Navi - when I originally made the scarf, I had the black be an outline. I have since modified it so the entirety of the wings are white.

To see more examples of my work, please visit my etsy shop!

Legend of Zelda Scarf

I knit this on size 8 wooden circulars, CO between 60-70 stitches, not 100% sure how many, but Link is almost 30 stitches, so at minimum it's 60. I knit the scarf to about 70", and then duplicate stitched the images on. As seen from the previous post, I very heavily modified a couple charts, and I made up the Navi chart. The triforce is everywhere, so I don't feel I owe any one person credit. This was incredibly fun, and I think it turned out really good. My only real complaint is my own guage issue; otherwise, I love it and plan on wearing it all winter!






ETA January 2014: Here are several more iterations I've done of this scarf - I've improved upon the images and each is unique:






And finally, a custom LoZ from a geekster who purchased the original last year!:
