This knitted cowl design in seed stitch includes the main colors from the four houses at Hogwarts, from the Harry Potter books by J.K. Rowling. The pattern makes a cowl with one short seam, although one could also continue knitting in pattern for several extra feet and make a wide, rectangular scarf instead.

This scarf was inspired by the novel Divergent by Veronica Roth. In Divergent, a society is divided into five distinct factions. The Amity faction grows crops and trees, inspiring this scarf in the Amity colors of red and yellow. I chose a burgundy and a soft yellow rather than the primary colors. Skills required include duplicate stitch, knit and purl.
