I made a Hitchhiker scarf (Pattern by Martina Behm). I am not usually one to buy easy patterns, but I decided to try this one out because of it's popularity on Ravelry. I was happy with my purchase- the pattern is clear and straightforward. I was in Portland a couple years ago and saw a shawl that was knit up with Shibui linen and Habu cotton at Knit Purl. I immediately fell in love with it and I knew I had to buy the yarn and make something similar. I held both yarns together and used up almost all the Shibui linen to make this scarf, which also used up close to 900m of my stash!
This was an easy, portable project and it traveled with me to Iceland and Vancouver! Here are some photos of the finished product.
I'll be posting smaller posts in the next few days and weeks on other projects and I'm hoping I can post a little more and get back into blogging. To be honest I'm not sure how I feel about blogging these days. I might shut this down all together and stick to Instagram... (to be decided!).
