The scarf I made looks nowhere near that worn by the character in the wuxia, but I definitely had him in mind while knitting it.

My Wuxia Scarf
Finished my wuxia scarf in December 2015 but couldn't find the right model to photograph it on. This full-length piece with a shaped hood was inspired by my viewing of The Return of the Condor Heroes a.k.a. The Romance of the Condor Heroes on Taiwan's GTV. This part of the trilogy is about the life (childhood through old age) of the wayward, maverick, and rebellious Yang Guo, a warrior who falls in love with his mentor, an enchantress, and marries her. He becomes an old man while the enchantress remains young forever.
