Bofur's Scarf
A tri-coloured scarf like the one seen around the neck of actor James Nesbitt, Bofur the Dwarf, in the Hobbit movies is now available as a Do-It-Yourself kit containing the beautiful wool and the instructions to make it.
The kit makes a 2.8 yard (2.6 metre) scarf in three colours.
Designed by Stansborough from the Stansborough Mithril Yarn Range. The very same wool supplied by Stansborough to the 3 Foot 7 art department for the Hobbit movies.
Make up the kit yourself or gift to any avid knitter or Hobbit Fan. Just imagine - it’s like being part of the costume crew.
A great accompaniment to The Hat of Bofur the Dwarf and Bofur’s Gloves Knitting Yarn Kit.
The kit contains:
- 3x50g balls of Stansborough 8Ply Yarn 100% New Zealand wool in colours: ‘Kokako’, ‘Raupo’ and ‘Takahe’
- Easy-to-follow pattern to create your own piece of Middle Earth
What you will also need:
- Beginner - intermediate knitting skills
- 10 mm (US Size 15) needles
- A towel, some wool-wash and 6-8 clothes pegs for the ‘stretching’ process.
Stretching Process:
In order to get the scarf to look like it does in the photo, some simple after treatment (stretching) needs to be done. The instructions for this are also included in the kit.
Beautifully packaged with the story of Stansborough in a cardboard box, eminently suitable as a gift box.
