As far as I am concerned it is still quite cold here in the UK and if I had a scarf as a Christmas gift I would have been quite happy indeed (sadly I didn’t.) But then again if I had one of these I would have been doing back flips down the street!  So without further ado I bring you…

10 – Nyan cat rides again! (£28.45)–(source)
Nyan Cat is the name of a YouTube video which became an Internet meme.  But I have no idea why I am telling you that because if you are a nerd like me you already knew! Anyway it makes a great looking scarf and well worth including in this top 10.

9 – Guide to starting a fight with a nerd. (£49.99)–(source)
Watch the nerd fighting commence….The best Doctor Who ever was Tom Baker, FACT! And you can get his iconic scarf on the source link. Anyone got a problem? BRING IT ON!

8 – Not all Piranhas live in the sea! (£17.70)–(source)
The first appearance of Piranha Plants was in World 1-2 of Super Mario Bros and they were semi-common enemies of Mario. Now days they are just into knitting scarves inspired by themselves.

7 – Lady gaga’s dress has nothing on this! (£45.77)–(source)
First off I will give you the fact that it is a little odd. But this is my top 10 and I think it is cool! What?… OK, OK, I admit it, I thought it was a little weird as well. But visually it is a real talk about scarf that is sure to turn heads!  Just as long as it is not worn at a Vegetarian Party.

6 – “Do your boobs hang low? Do they wobble to and fro?” (£19.07)–(source)
These are a little too rude for a present for an elderly mum. (maybe I am a prude)  but in Japan these have gone viral! With it being gift of the year in 2010 there are literally thousands of them and you can have tattoos, piercing and every colour under the sun!

5 – No animals were harmed during the making of this scarf! (£38.14)–(source)
“The quick brown scarf wraps around the lazy dogs neck” is sadly not a phrase that contains all of the letters of the alphabet. But it does sum up this great looking scarf that doesn’t cost the earth but would be a real talking point, and is in fact still quite nerdy because it is inspired by the web browser Firefox!

4 – The only scarf with its own ASBO! (£11.04)–(source)
The scarf with real attitude and maybe one for all the CSI nerds out there. It has a look like the crime scene tape found over many a murder scene and makes you stand out like a sore thumb. This is knitting, urban style!

3 – Now that really is a knockout! (£45)–(source)
A lovely nerdette who goes by the name “Beatboxtaun” knitted this incredible classic Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out scarf. While the link does go to a scarf that is already sold if you ask (or beg) nicely enough maybe Beatboxtaun could make one very similar for you.

2 – I like my Pizza like I like my neck. Nice and warm! (£28.61)–(source)
If fact this goes nicely with yesterday’s blog “The World’s Top 10 Best Pizza Cutters ” and while this tasty looking scarf didn’t quite make it to number one I think for us pizza lovers it would be a great gift to receive.

1 – The scarf of happy memories.(£25.43)–(source)
Level 1-1 of Super Mario Bros is the one that everyone remembers. The iconic monsters, coin blocks and of course Super Mario himself and it is all on this one epic scarf! And given the fact that it is just over £25 means it just had to be number 1.
