Pattern Spotlight: Vincent and Amy Pond

gimp fix for 524

Originally published in September of 2011, the Vincent and Amy Pond scarf was one of my very first patterns. I loved the long red lace scarf Amy Pond wears in season 5 of Dr. Who (“The Vampires of Venice” and “Vincent and the Doctor”).

So I design something similar – long and lacy and flowing. I picked a lovely lace from Barbara Walker’s Treasury of Knitting Patterns, added borders and repeats. And I released it as a free pattern.

This scarf is as fun to knit as it is to wear! Sample is knit in Knit Picks Stroll and used 450 yards or most of two 50 g balls. Pattern edited and updated in 2016. The Vincent and Amy Pond scarf is available through Ravelry and LoveKnitting! The pattern has been been downloaded more than 1,300 times and is still free. Happy knitting!
