I've come to the end of the trail.
Hitchhiker is finished.
This delightful, asymmetrical garter stitch shawlette is perfect summertime knitting.
Relaxed and effortless.
Easy to pick up, hard to put down.
I would have kept going but there was only so much yarn.
The yarn is Dirty Water DyeWorks Bertha, colorway Tide Pool.
Tide Pool is a new colorway that sold out at Sock Summit. It will be available soon on the website.
I found my color inspiration for the week hiding in the grass.
Ivory colored in a jungle of green.

Leaving A Trail
I should be chained to my desk. I have hours and hours of computer work waiting for me. And then there is the paperwork. The piles are reaching mountainous proportions. It seems almost sinful to accumulate so much paper in this paperless day and age.
But it's summer, and I've given myself a few lazy days. I haven't shirked all my duties and responsibilities. There is food in the fridge, and the mounds of dirty laundry are manageable.
Instead of sitting at my desk, I've been keeping company with a knitting project or two. As evidence of what I've been up to, I've left a trail.
A trail of garter. Row after row after row of glorious garter with a jagged edge thrown in for interest. Hitchhiker. I can't seem to stop - and won't until I run out of yarn. Sadly the end is in sight.
Tomorrow I may be at my desk all day. Today? Just a few more rows of garter.
