GrannyG was showing this off the other day and I thought, “Ooh! I quite fancy that!” Purchased the pattern through Ravelry and cast on this evening thanks to a surprise Christmas present from a friend – 7 balls of Shepherd Baby Wool Merino 4 ply (5 lettuce green, 2 cream) and a Debbie Bliss magazine. The Upstairs Shawl was put aside with relief so I could get stuck into the Hitchhiker. Needed a rest from bloody 2 ply…

Should have this finished in the next few days hopefully.

UPDATE: The finished scarf…

Did another one too, in Noro Kureyon. So simple, so addictive, must stop…
