I finished my aunt's Hitchhiker a little while ago, but just got around to taking photos (I remembered right before I sealed it in the envelope!).
The History: (if you're interested!) A few months ago she asked me to knit her a shawl but for me to choose the color. Originally I had Great Divide Shawl in mind but once I cast on, I decided the colors and pattern weren't for her (they are becoming Pendulum instead!). Then at the closing sale of one of Missoula's yarn shops, I found this gray MadTosh and knew it was the right one. To knit her a Hitchhiker with this yarn was a no brainer :)
It's pretty official that I adore Madeline Tosh.
Happy weekend!!
(this one does not count towards Andi's Get it Done KAL because I finished it before the KAL started!)
Beautiful. Makes me want to cast on another, right now. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Andi!! It is such a soothing knit...I am fighting an urge to cast on another too!
DeleteFabulous job. It is awesome.
ReplyDeleteDreamy, I gotta cast on for one of those. And Mad Tosh makes me so happy.
