The Secret Scarf
.

My inner geek is ready to come out of the closet.
I dug through the Human Genome Project and found the MCR1 gene on the 16th chromosome. I dug deeper and found the variances that cause red hair.
I copied the code.
I converted it to a color chart.
I wrote my first ever pattern.
I'm knitting a gene...
And I'm not alone!

I shared the pattern with others on the Knitty board, and hopefully, they'll be knitting the redhead gene with me!
