Hufflepuff Scarf


So I've been working on knitting a Hufflepuff Scarf.

To explain- my three roommates and I took the Harry Potter house-sorting test and we all got Hufflepuff, so we decided to go as Hufflepuff students for Halloween. I did manage to finish the scarf a week before Halloween, but it was 85˚ that night, so I did not end up wearing it.
However, here is the completed scarf- it goes down to my knees when wrapped around my neck, otherwise it is...well, long, and very warm and cozy. I don't think the pattern, if there is one, required it to be so long, but I've always wanted a long scarf, and two years ago I made someone a Gryffindor scarf about the same length proportionally on him, though he is a foot taller than I. Ever since then I have wanted a long, cozy scarf, and I thought this was the perfect opportunity.
We also made wands and robes, and we bought ties, and I will post a picture of my full costume later- once I get a picture of it taken. I can't wait until I have a need to wear this to keep warm, as it is still very warm outside right now.

In two weeks I shall be home and welcomed by cold weather!
