Mighty Nein: Nott The Best Scarf by Danielle Lanois Inspired by Nott the Brave, the quirky goblin rogue played by Sam Riegel on Critical Role, this scarf can be knit short (as in the sample), or long. The scarf is made up of five different strips that connect in multiple places to give the illusion of many strips wrapped around you, like the bandages that Nott wears to disguise herself.
