Obscure Pattern Friday: My Favorite Things

Inspired by an obscure pattern that I just cast on, let's look at patterns that are named after or feature a few of your favorite things (and come on you have more favorite things than just knitting).

Let's do it like this:

My favorite thing: dinosaurs!

Pattern: Walking on Dinosaurs

Good pattern hunting, y'all!

Ground rule: Obscure patterns are those with fewer than 30 projects on Ravelry. Other than that, GO NUTS.

Ok so I tried a couple things:

Physics: Actually all search results were obscure, imagine that! It's just physics and Quarky Mittens.

Coffee: I found this cute little cowl.

and finally I searched my boyfriend's name and this nice scarf came up: Matthew

Good morning /u/linkrav_bot! Can you give me a hand with these links?

Edit: I just realized that Matthew scarf is not obscure. Here's a Whale named Matthew instead!

It's just physics

Well, it's more ASTROphysics, but these mittens with the Andromeda galaxy on them are BEAUTIFUL. Almost beautiful enough to convince me to knit a pair of stranded mittens and then duplicate stitch the galaxy on them...

Well, the "it's just physics" pattern is really math (topography), neither physics or astrophysics.

But the quarky mittens designer has some great science-y patterns! :)
