Actually, I guess he's a her. She's the first deer I've seen on our property since the social distancing started. I guess even the deer are getting tired of staying home.
I finished my Hitchhiker finally. I've knit a thousand of these over the years and I think this is the first one I've actually knit all 43 teeth. I always either run out of yarn, get bored, or simply get too excited to start the next project. This time around, the yarn was so glorious to work with, I didn't mind knitting all 43 teeth. I even considered giving it extra teeth but.... It's long enough as is and now I have left over yarn to add to my Rambling Rows afghan.
The Rambling Rows may prove to be my downfall. It was supposed to be my 'while I read' project and I had several other projects planned for this month but I just can't put it down. I just can't! The call of a new square and a new yarn is just too strong and I can't help myself. I think I might need a meeting.
Your Hitchhiker is beautiful! That is such a pretty color and I bet that pink is very flattering.
ReplyDeleteI think all the wildlife is getting bolder now that we're not outside as much. We got pretty close to a deer when we went for a walk in the woods last weekend, and even the squirrels in our yard are letting me get closer than usual!
ReplyDeleteYour Hitchhiker looks great! I still need to start mine.
Love that Hitchhiker! I plan to start one this weekend. "might need a meeting." - LOL
ReplyDeletebeautiful hitchhiker! and I do see him/her, what a sweetie. The deer haven't been social distancing over here, they are always out and about.
ReplyDeleteYour Hitchhiker is really beautiful! I love the color/texture of that yarn -- it's perfection. (Our deer? NOT social distancing at all. . . ) Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI'm that way with the Coziest Memory Blanket. Starting a new square is much more interesting than knitting on the same ol' sock. LOL
ReplyDeleteYour Hitchhiker is gorgeous. That is a fun project.
The way the colors move on your Hitchhiker is very pretty. I'm the same way on my nine patch blanket. I haven't worked on it for awhile because I know once I bring it out I won't want to do anything else.

I love that scarf - really pretty color and looks so cozy! I love the look of your blanket, too, a patchwork memory of all your knitting projects! That will be snuggly.
ReplyDeleteHey, go with the flow, knit what you want! I love the color and the shawl is so cushy!!! I have yet to knit one, I think I have Brickless, but not Hitchhiker?
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have a visitor! I've actually seen more animals out because the humans have quieted down.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your HH finish! it looks great!!
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot of deer here and I see them everyday. Sometimes walking right in my little backyard. I wish we had less traffic so they had more room to roam. Love your Hitchhiker.
