Tangled up in Blue Hitchhiker








Tangled Up in Blue Hitchhiker -- I loved this project.

(this is my daughter Brooke!!)


I used some sportweight Mardi-Gras (1 skein - 350 yards) on size 6 needles.
Instead of the usual 42 "teeth", I stopped at 32. By then, it was 58" long and 11" wide---Very wearabe.

More details are on Ravelry: Tangled up in Blue









wip is after 25 "teeth"
I would recommend this pattern -- fun and fast in the bulkier yarn!

Your Hitchhiker is great, and the colors are beautiful on Brooke. I like her hat too.

Unfortunately...Brooke says that they are "not her colors". I am happy that she is honest about it.....and will be knitting her one...same pattern, same yarn...different colorway -- brown. tawny & black.
***She remembers going to the straw shop on San Pablo!! We are going to get Brooke knitting again! ...And...I think she is cute too...but I am her mom!
