Travel Projects

I haven't gotten much done (or anything, really) the past week on the knitting/crochet front. It goes that way sometimes. There are times when I'm busily making stuff and times when I'm not. This is a not time.

Mostly what I did last week was think. And plan. What projects do I want to take with me on my little trip?

I'm going out of town tomorrow for the holiday. (I've set all my blog posts up already. I have no idea if I'll be around or not, though.) And, of course, I need to have something to take along to do. But what? 

The dragon knit is way too complicated for a take-along project. And I have nothing else really going. 

I mean, I could make another strand of Christmas lights...

But that's kind of a lot of bits to carry along on an airplane. Although, I do have that green yarn that I used for the Christmas tree last year that turned out to not be enough, and I could frog what I did do...


Maybe? 

Or, I have some leftover yarn from the eye sweater.

Perhaps a hat to go with it?

I just don't know. And I should figure it out soon. I mean, like by tomorrow. 

(I have been contemplating this for weeks now. And I'm still no closer to a plan. Sigh.)

  2. A hat to go with it would be fun! Or, maybe just grab a book you've wanted to read and let your fingers rest? Have a nice Thanksgiving holiday!

    1. Oh, I'm bringing my ereader and phone too. My fingers haven't been working hard at all lately.

  3. So many ideas, but deciding which one feels like a project in itself! A hat sounds like a great idea.. Plus, it’s easy to pick up and put down, which is ideal for travel.

    1. Yeah, a hat would have been great, if I had figured it out earlier.

  5. I forgot all about the crocheted lights but I haven't even touched my temperature afghan for months. Wishing you safe (and timely) travels. I know you'll come up with something.

    1. No room in the luggage for the lights, so that's staying home. Sigh.

    1. Oh, that is so cute! Sadly, I didn't bring any green yarn with me. Maybe when I get home.
