I finally finished knitting something! It’s a Hitchhiker.
I could tell you (again) how the Hitchhiker is the best scarf pattern ever. I could tell you I love the color. I could tell you about manually striping a solid and variegated yarn to break up the pooling even more.
I could tell you how happy I am to have frogged this yarn from a different project to reclaim it for one. I could sing the praises of neon green. I could tell you it’s perfect timing because Fogust is arriving in style, it’s super foggy this week.
I could tell you it took me 15 movies to knit this. I could even give you reviews of those movies.
Unfortunately, I’m short on time, heading to another movie. With no knitting?!? For my next trick, I will be crocheting in the dark! I’ll let you know how it goes!

So, now that I’ve double checked on my needle size, even I’m a bit surprised at how loose my gauge was. I used a US 3 needle for this. The yarn is a sock yarn. This is why I’ll don’t knit socks!

You did what with the yarn?! It looks smashing btw, and I remember Fogust from my youth when we lived in Pacifica. Actually in 18 months there I never remember a warm sunny day…

Pacifica is the foggiest of the foggy places :) Actually had a lovely day at the beach there over the weekend…by which I mean foggy, windy and cold!

Is ‘Frogged’ the part you question? Tearing out a work in progress is called Frogging it. Because when you rip it out, you sound like a frog. rippit rippit *ribbit ribbit* Somehow, this delightful pun has become common knitting language! :)

Actually I meant how did you make your own verigated yarn

I striped a variegated with a solid…so I really just spread the variegation out a bit extra. I’m happy with how it turned out, lots of neon green! I’m not getting lost in a crowd!
