Beige Satin Blouse

Working from example. This wasn’t my first, first scarf that took me like 20 years extremely off and on and was started against my will for me at age 9. But after making Dr Whool (13) this was basically the first thing.

So when I say you’ll see your improvements and change in tension, here you go. Behold the wibble. Embrace it. See how extra wibbly things are even in just a few rows of the same wool on the left. You’ll get that. This is not to be worried about, we should love looking back at our starter projects, or I do anyway. Improvement’s sexy.

Now this is acrylic. Gives you some wiggle room that cotton doesn’t. (Also more lightweight and breathable, and depending on how long a 4th Doctor scarf you’re going for, that can really start to build up.

Mine gets to be extra wiggly because of 40 different brands of wool to get the right colours for pride flags. But if you’re just doing a Fourth Doctor one, try and find one (1) brand that has the colours you like/need and get those. (And do not settle. This is a long project and you’ll want the thing at the end. If you get the colour in your hand and you’re going ‘well i guess it’ll do’ - no it won’t. Just get something else before you start).

Also the edges. You’ll want some kind of neatening, which I think for mine was a slip stitch. You don’t need one that is complicated, if it’s going over three rows it’s just up its arse. Not the best picture, but if you look at the left side edges, like on the classic lesbian flag (it was just before the shift over goddamn it) then compare with say the beige near the ace flag, you’ll see it looks neater. That’s why.

And finally, just remember, it’s not reversible. …I mean the back side you’ll see the colour change and it’ll be clean on the front, not ‘don’t ever undo your knitting’, absolutely do do that. I’ve never regretted having to unknit any number of rows to fix a fuck up.

Also don’t use the specific brand of orangey-brown wool I got locked into cus it worked like nothing else has before or since and it was basically like elastic. And stopped being stocked halfway through and I had to source it from like Portugal.

Sandra waitressed at a favorite Palm Springs restaurant that I eat at on week-ends. That's all I want to tell you. I'll put up another pic of her next month.
