Notes

My 1st Hitchhiker and already on to the next one.

I think the 575 yards the pattern calls for is needed for the fuller depth and weight in front-this one took a little primping. Got 37 points with this yardage.

Needle sizes 5 or 6 give it the loose drape that the bias design requires. Also benefits from the addition of silk or bamboo for additional slinkiness.

Very wearable and great style as compared to the traditional “scarf” shape.
