Knitting Up: Hitchhiker
Hitchhiker by Strickmich
Hitchhiker is one of the most popular patterns on Ravelry, and one that is ideal for highly variegated hand dyed yarns because the shape and garter stitch both show off the colours to their best effect. The pattern calls for Wollmeise but there are some beautiful British alternatives.
