Notes

Here is another (Another!) Hitchhiker, done in a winter-weight wool, as a companion to the Latvian Braid 1898 Hat that was a gift a few years back. It has 25 teeth, with the last three knit in the darker ‘Maple’ yarn color -- well, OK, I did run short on yarn, but I think the pairing of the two tweeds is a handsome look, and is does co-ordinate with the CC on the Latvian Braid of the hat.

I am trying to stifle my urge to add a single tassel to the pointy end. Two-tone tassels are the best, but not all recipients agree with me on this particular fashion point. I don’t think I’ll put Stefano on the spot.

The finished scarf is 66” on the long end and 12” at the deepest point. The weight is 110 grams, with 25 teeth.
