What’s on My Needles?

I’m still working on the Hitchhiker shawl/scarf, but I’m closing in.  I have 35 points done out of 42.  Of course, the rows get longer every time I even look at it!

Pattern:  Hitchhiker, by Martina Behm
Yarn:  Crazy Zauberball, Colorway 2136, “Spring is Here”

I’m using a little larger needles than called for.  I think they are #5 circular needles.   The texture of the scarf is kind of a boucle’ fabric, and I am really liking it.  I figure three more sessions of knitting, and I will be ready to do my first blocking.

  1. I am not a knitter but between you and Judy L. I might have to try it. I love the colors in the yarn you are working on. It looks beautiful.

  2. That is beautiful, Sue! You know I love Judy and she DOES have good taste and is a wonderful giving person…..but she sure is hard on my budget!!!!

  3. Love your Hitchhiker. That yarn is perfect for it! Those last “teeth” do take a really long time but it’s so nice to be able to mindlessly knit and get them done.

    1. Hmmmm, I wonder??? Could it be…another JUDY? I have viewed Judy L’s queue on Ravelry and copy-catted a number of them. The woman has good taste.

  4. I’ve been thinking about trying this pattern, but I’ve never blocked my knitting so that rather worries me.
    Yours looks fabulous.
