The major characters of the series in their high school uniforms.

The Bleach anime and manga series features a large number of characters created by Tite Kubo. The series takes place in a fictional universe in which the characters are divided into various factions and fictional races with distinct themes. All these races are human beings, that in the moment they died, they were able or not to rest in peace. Souls who manage to rest go to a place called Soul Society where they live for a long time until resurrecting in a new body or they instead can become Soul Reapers, who take care of souls.

The series opens telling how a teenager called Ichigo Kurosaki is given Soul Reapers power by Rukia Kuchiki. As he assumes the duties of a Soul Reaper, Ichigo has to fight against giant creatures called hollow which are really dead people who are not able to rest in peace. As he faces several hollows, some of his friends awake their own powers due to being close to him and start helping him. However, Soul Society, a type of military of Soul Reapers arrests Rukia for giving her powers to Ichigo and prepare to execute her. Unwilling to let her die, Ichigo and his friends go to rescue her to Soul Society, causing them to face several Soul Reapers. As the storyline continue, a former Soul Reaper called Sōsuke Aizen gathers a large number of hollows called arrancar, who obtained Reaper powers and prepares to attack Soul Society.

The characters have received praise and criticism by reviewers from anime, manga and other media. While some reviewers considered some of them "relatively stereotypical" of manga characters, most of them remarked how each of them had their own characteristic and praised their illustration and how they fight.

How to Knit a Ruffled Scarf


Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

  • Yarn
  • Knitting needles
  • Yarn needle
Step1
Pick your yarn. Since this is a scarf and will likely be against delicate neck skin, pick a yarn that is soft. Also, if the wearer has an allergy to wool or acrylic, make sure the yarn you choose is free of that fiber.
Step2
Choose what needle size you want to use. Check the size recommendations on the packaging of the yarn for the best fit.
Step3
Determine the desired width of your scarf. Using the yarn packaging or a swatch knitted for gauge, figure out how many stitches you need to get your desired width. Keep in mind that stockinette stitch will curl in around the edges.
Step4
Take the number of stitches decided on in Step 3, multiply it by 4, and cast on that many stitches. For example, if I wanted my scarf to be 25 stitches in width, I would cast on 100 stitches to start.
Step5
Create the first ruffle. Knit two stitches together across the entire first row, leaving you with half the stitches you began with. For the second row, purl two stitches together across the entire row, halving the number of stitches again.
Step6
Knit the length of your scarf in stockinette stitch (meaning knit the right side of the piece and purl the wrong side). An average scarf is between 60 inches and 72 inches long, depending on the height of the wearer.
Step7
End with the second ruffle by doing the opposite of what you did on the other end. Work one row, right side facing, by knitting one stitch and then making one stitch by picking up the yarn from the row below; do this across the entire row. This will double your stitches. Then, with the wrong side facing, purl one stitch and make one stitch the same way you did in the previous row, doubling your stitches again.
Step8
Finish the scarf by binding off loosely and then using your yarn needle to weave in the loose ends of the yarn.
