<p>Like any good Whovian, my first project is a Four scarf &#8212; really, I suspect that epic piece of neckwear is the only reason anyone in my fandom knits.  It&#8217;s only half-scale though, since I&#8217;d like to be able to wear it now and again, and I&#8217;d rather not have people <a href="http://www.sparrowmorgan.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/4standingonmyscarf.wav">standing on my scarf</a>.</p>
<p>All in all, I think it&#8217;s a bit of alright, <a href="http://www.sparrowmorgan.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/k9veryveryalright.wav">don&#8217;t you, K-9?</a>?</p>
<p>ETA:  1/4 of the way through and I realized I&#8217;d finally started knitting to gauge.  So I frogged it and started over.  Again.  I guess on a Four scarf, the fourth time&#8217;s the charm?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m getting to support lots of individual artisans in putting together my costume, and I&#8217;m really enjoying it.  It&#8217;s a small thing, but it feels good!</p>
<p>My underbust is coming from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5524457" target="_blank">AnnaLadyMoon</a> in a blue-grey stripe, or at least will be, if she doesn&#8217;t get entirely frustrated with my ability to completely confuse horizontal and vertical.  Oops.  Either way, it&#8217;ll be lovely.</p>
<p>The hat, which is critical, is in the works from <a href="http://www.noxenlux.com/" target="_blank">Noxenlux Chapeaux</a>.  I&#8217;m not much of a hat person, but she comes highly recommended.  I hope she sends me a sketch soon, I&#8217;m incredibly curious as to what she&#8217;s got planned.</p>
<p>Also curious to see what <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6697243" target="_blank">ByGaslight</a> is going to whip up for me to use as &#8220;stained glass&#8221; accents for the skirt and coat.  I&#8217;ve given her a general idea, but it&#8217;ll be her design.  I just love the way her stuff looks.</p>
<p>Very excited about a pair dove grey lace gloves from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6045287" target="_blank">Skywatcher112</a> on their way to me right now.  She had them finished in two days!   Handmade lace gloves!  How incredibly fabulous.  I simply cannot wait for them to arrive!</p>
<p>&#8230;and not really for the costume, but I&#8217;m also anxiously checking the mail for the Dalek glass bead <a href="http://kalliope-kheru.livejournal.com/" target="_blank">kalliope_kheru</a> made for me.  I think he&#8217;ll make an awesome little necklace, or a watch fob, perhaps.  Lots of personality.</p>
