bears. beets. battlestar galactica.

So guys.  
This morning I was spinning away on this beautiful tonal yellow wool, which is going to become a ruffled scarf.  I'm really pleased with how it's coming out, but as I was spinning it, I kept thinking, "What is this color combination reminding me of?"

And then it hit me.

Oh.
It's Dwight-shirt yellow.

If you've been visiting for a while, you know that I love The Office.
And now that I've seen the connection between my yarn and Dwight's color of choice, I can't un-see it.

It's also the color of Jim-as-Dwight's shirt in my absolute favorite moment in the entire series.
(it's in season 3, episode 20.  I laugh until I cry every time I watch it.  ohhhh jeez, I'm giggling just thinking about it.) 
So now this yarn is going to be my "Bears.  Beets.  Battlestar Galactica." scarf.

And I'm kind of excited about it.

    1. I kinda agree with you-- I love all the other characters (except Nellie and Robert California, I think they're super lame), but part of what makes the show so great is the way Dwight interacts with everyone. Especially Jim, I love their weird frenemy vibe.
      (p.s. I can't seem to leave comments on your blog. Am I just not seeing it?)
