Pop Culture Knitting: A Dr. Watson Scarf, I presume
Knitting is full of whims. For the modern knitter, just choosing to knit must be whimsical on some level. So I have no good explanation beyond whim for why I made this scarf. I haven’t even seen the movie in which it appears, only a trailer and a few still shots. But I will. Eventually. I would not have chosen this color combination (brown, blue, and cream). But I love it. I love that combo enough that I am now knitting matching slippers and planning to repaint my living room.
Jude Law’s movie version of the scarf comes down to his knees. I may have overshot that a bit. Mr. Law is surely taller than I am, but not enough to make a nine-foot scarf come down to his knees. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Jude Law is tiny. According to his imdb bio, he's a mere 5'11.5". Could have starred in Gulliver's Travels or as an extra in The Hobbit. ;-)
Well, in that case, if he wraps it once around his head, the scarf should be just knee-length for him. But for YOU, Cab, It should seem like a normal scarf. ;)
