My new scarf (pics)
« on: October 23, 2008, 12:30:47 PM »
Well, after a long time, I finally finished knitting a replica of the most famous scarf in the universe. And that's not even hyperbole!





Now I just have to work on acquiring a proper coat.

Cherubim is plural; Genesis 3:24 specifies one flaming sword. Presumably flaming swords were in short supply."

You will also need to construct a time machine that's bigger on the inside than it is on the outside, a project which might be just as difficult.

Awesome scarf though.

It's a lovely scarf, but I'm afraid I don't know what it's a replica of.  :?

I was going to write that, but I thought it was more subjective. See, the scarf in question has already been:

  • Juan Valdez
  • awesome
  • impressive
  • lovely

I didn't want to pigeonhole this amazing fantastic spectacular scarf with a single adjective.

edit: dammit I talked myself into a hole here*

* and normally I enjoy doing that

The whole hat thing threw me off.  When it started loading, I thought it was the weirdest scarf ever.  (No pigeonholing was intended.)  After I actually saw it, I thought the scarf was beyond description.  (Therefore voiding myself of the responsibility of giving any opinion whatsoever, because that could go either way very easily.)

Fine then. I'll just knit up my own scarf and it will be more awesomer than this one is and you'll all beg me to post pictures of my awesome scarf and I won't do it so neener-neener.

If that is true, he could probably do it with two hands tied to his head and one foot in concrete...

He would have quite a problem on his tied up hands then.
