I may be the last knitter around to cast on Hitchhiker going by the project page on ravelry. But last year I told my mum I would knit her a pattern of her choosing and that’s what she chose.
She has been grateful for some truly awful knitted gifts from when I first started, and I’m trying to even the score.
So I cast on Hitchhiker with a bamboo viscose yarn, which is really nice to knit with.
So far I’ve ripped it back 3 times. Only a knitter knows just how difficult counting to 6 can be.
Ps. Don’t forget to enter my giveaway
Well you have officially beaten this knitter in picking up the pattern, but I will say it is definitely a beautiful wip. I love the color.
Ha. I’m sitting on the couch with the pattern on my iPad diligently scrolling down a row when I finish a row.
Even with that I’ve ripped back three times. We all have our systems.
I still haven’t, so up to now you weren’t alone. It’s on my list, though…
Well, ‘guess I’ll add my name to the list of have-yet-not’s. You were definitely not alone ❤ And now, you shall have no fear! … for we are all here! 🙂
If you are the last, then I was the second to last. Your Hitchhiker looks beautiful, your mom will love it!
” Only a knitter knows just how difficult counting to 6 can be. ” Music to my ears. How true this is. I am going to knit one of these this year too 🙂 happy knitting.
