I recently came across someone using *{vaDmuv} as a verb meaning "to knit"
(e.g., a sweater) on Twitter. It doesn't look like a Klingon verb.
Actually, it looks like two Klingon verbs stuck together (but then again,
so does {He'So'}).

AFAICT this is the earliest usage of it online:

Is this a legit word?
