Blue hitchhiker progress

I’ve rounded the halfway mark on my latest Hitchhiker scarf and wanted to comment on how much I’m enjoying working with this beautiful Ricin yarn named Past & Pending by Rainy Days & Wooly Dogs.  It is a mix of merino, bamboo and nylon and boy is it soft!  Perfect for next to the skin type projects. I'm thinking this gorgeous colorway would look great with my p-coat. Should be perfect timing as cooler weather is just around the corner…

GGS - FO

My Giant granny square is officially a finished object, Hooray!
It seems like this project was on the hook forever.  Little did I know, when I joined Le Monde de Sucrette’s CAL, that I’d be staying a while.  All in all, I enjoyed the time invested in this project and it was very easy on the brain. While working on the edge I’d have it on my lap/legs and enjoy the warmth.

Stats;
45 rounds
5 colors of Vanna’s Choice yarn; white, dusty series- green, purple, cream and taupe using a size J hook.
1 round of single crochet prior to adding the Chain stitch loop edging,

I learned how to work the Loop Edging from the tutorial posted on Crochetspot, thank you Robin.

Be sure to check out the other finished Giants over on Flickr,
and a big shout out; Thank you Angie for a great CAL!
