nexte, we prepare the yarn. we take the wrapping out of the yarn, to make it into a ball. i pinch the end of the yarn and start spinning it around. spinning. FINISHED! Olga is sad because i nagged him for trying to steal the yarn. Yikes! seven more to go. purple not pictured because lumi stole it so, what color should i use for the base? i have blue, white, red, purple, black, yellow (not advisable) and some others, i can also get more colors. so i vant your debate. now also, nightreflection, i can add blood splatter of course. edit: yes, i did it while watching My little pony: friendship is magic, and if i so much as hear a squick of laughter i will chew on your still living nose geddit?

I like the idea of blood spatter, so you should use a base that'll make it pop out, but not clash. Don't use green or another prime. I think a purple base would be good.

Purple and blue are Charby's favourites (see any shirt episode), but then he is coloured white, black and red himself, so those are my recommendations, but remember, it's your scarf, and make sure you enjoy making it or there isn't really a point. You hear me> You WILL ENJOY making it.

YAY! You finally started it Demon!! This is gona be soooooooooooo entertaining! As for the background color I'd say black but it may make your work harder so I'll say purple instead, it being one of Charby's fav colors as well :3

oookay, so 3/3 votes are purple, i'm guessing i'll make it purple unless amelius orders me to make it green in which case i'll make it purple PS: i'm not sure if i have violet or purple, i'll use it)

If you could combine purple and blue stripes with black, white, and red, that'd be the perfect Charby scarf.

Also grey (silver) hooks. Then I think all bases are covered. Oh wait... and a chicken. X3

If it were Dr. Who, your neckwear should be a bow tie. Bow ties are cool.

I'm a bit surprised that there exists a MAN who think boy ties aren't uncomfortable xD

Do you like to knit with a ball of yarn, rather than whatever it was before? I prefer the not-ball, because if you pull the right end, you can knit without the yarn rolling all over the place.
Hm, I wonder if I could make a pair of CTV fingerless gloves.

Post by the1truesushiboy on Feb 21, 2011 16:34:47 GMT -5
I would buy a pair of CTV fingerless gloves from anybody who'd make them.

Post by ihonestlydontknow on Feb 21, 2011 23:34:23 GMT -5
And I would sell a pair to anyone who would give me money. If only I could knit a pair. -sigh- i can knit regular fingerless gloves just fine... i've never tried knitting pictures, though.

I love bow ties they're really super special awesome and triple wow special.

Practice makes perfect.
In all honesty, my own opinion of ties is "meh." I can tie them and wear them without discomfort, but I don't think they're all that useful for fashion to begin with.

Bow tied remind me of pasta. But before we stray too far off topic, does Demon have any comments on the color schemes mentioned thus far?

Probably, but I'm curious as to what he settled on.
