Here is the video by @stanceymackenzie ~ https://youtu.be/8jtD-A3TKgc?feature=shared
Here is the website where the pattern is freely available in various yarn weights, by inches, and also by season etc. ~ http://www.doctorwhoscarf.com/
Yarn from https://www.jamiesonsofshetland.co.uk/
Note ~ my knit gauge was a little tighter than called for in the double knit weight, so I used the inches chart. I preferred the slightly denser look so I didn’t bother adjusting my gauge too much.
