With more than 32,000 projects, “Hitchhiker” is one of the most successful knitting patterns worldwide. Its innovative shape and biased construction have been popular for a decade, likely because it looks awesome in colorful, hand-dyed yarns. Plus: one skein will suffice to make a wearable shawl! The Hitchhiker has inspired many other designs, and its inventor has used it as a canvas as well: in “The Hitchhiker Collection”, Martina Behm proves how creatively she uses her own construction. Loops and helixes, zig-zags and lace, ruffles and interesting structures look great in the Hitchhiker shape! In this collection, you will find 20 projects suitable for beginners and more experienced knitters alike – and quite a few that will help you acquire more skills and try out new techniques.
