You know that bit at the beginning of Marvel productions when the pflt-pflt-pflt noise starts and you’re going through the pages of a comic book and it turns into the logo. Yeah, I love that bit. I love it so much I knitted a very self indulgent scarf to remind me of it. Specifically an Avengers scarf because there are too many Marvel heroes to fit onto a single piece of knitwear. Designs are mostly taken from the cinematic version of the characters, but I’ve thrown in a couple of comic book references too. The technique I used was double knitting which means the image on the front of the scarf is mirrored in reverse colours on the back. If I was a professional art person I would probably write something about the negative image representing the transition of comic book panels to film. Luckily I’m only a humble crafts person and don’t have to do that.I used a little bit of lots of colours – thirteen in total – but that could definitely be reduced. And because someone always asks the needles I used were UK size 9 (3.75mm) and the yarns were all dk weight. The scarf measures 22cm by 200cm and weighs a little over 300g. -- source link
