no pics at this time, but here's a simple one.
at the dollar store you can get boggins for like $1 each..
turn it inside out and pick a spot between the seams, try to follow the knit rib.
make a cut through one thickness of the boggin, between the X stitches.. like a buttonhole. dont' cut the stitches, cut the boggin itself. It looks like this: X-
reach in between the layers down to the bottom, and pull it inside out. It turns into a loop. great for a scarf, or covering your ugly mug when it's cold. It's stretchy so it stays in place. reverse it again and it's a boggin again, with a small hole inside.
Thanks to my b.i.l. for showing me something he discovered on accident lol.
Ummmm, ....................What is a "boggin"?

I'd like to see pictures of that YCC, I'm thinking about doing it :)
chrs. I'll get batteries sometime today when the wife gets back from xmas shopping.. will take pics then to better show what to do.
I have never heard anyone call it a boggin.
Ski hat, knit hat, watch cap (army), togue, etc, never a boggin. Maybe it is an east coast thing.
Boggin', is just short for "toboggan cap".Quote:

2d2k is right.. toboggan cap.
I thought it was a southern dialect thing, but I see the yankees call it that too.
pics coming.. uploading them now.
Permanently attach Gaiters to Boots, with construction adhesive, or silicone. We do this with Bunny Boots, and 86 the laces.
Here you see the hole that only goes through one layer. boggin is inside out so the raggedy hole isn't seen.

pull the boggin inside out, through the hole like this:

and voila, now you have a balaclava thing.. I'll call it a scarf cuz i'm a redneck and have no idea how to pronounce balaclava.

I don't know how to knit so I can't tell you how to keep it from unravelling, but at $1 a piece I don't think I'll worry about it too much. If anyone finds out how to knit the buttonhole to pull it through, I'm very interested.
Nice idea YCC and you bring up an interesting point. Knitting is probably a good skill to learn.
I try to keep the gators off my boots..Quote:
