Harry Potter Wizard Scarf
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease®
GAUGE:
15 stitches = 4 inches [10 cm]; 8 rows = 3 inches [7.5 cm] in hdc.
BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Harry Potter Wizard Scarf Reviewed by Gretchen Peters on 2012-02-01
My son loves how his scarf looks. He is already commenting on how scratchy it feels due to the wool - we'll see if that effects how often he wears it. I was very pleased at how quickly I was able to make this scarf.
I made two adjustments to the pattern. My son wanted smaller blocks of color so I alternated between 8 rows of cranberry and 7 of gold instead of blocks of 15 rows. I also added some rows because the scarf came out a little short.
