vertical stripes

I decided to make a scarf with vertical stripes.  Actually, that's not true.  I was watching TV, trying to figure out what to do with this awesome yarn that a friend surprised ordered for me from Knit Picks.  Then the idea of having a striped scarf would be cool.  Then I thought that horizontal stripes are boring and wouldn't it be cool if it was vertical stripes.  Then I tried to figure out how one would go about making a scarf with vertical stripes.  So three hours later, this is what I ended up with:


After a while, I needed a break from the vertical striping so I added a block of horizontal.  Then I decided it was time to go try to go to sleep.  I'm not sure if I like the combination of the two or if I want to frog the horizontal part and just have it all be vertical.  One thing for sure, the vertical stripes are staying because that was a lot of work.  I'm guesstimating that it will be finished around Christmas time, 2025.
