By the time you read this, I’ll be on my way to Sydney. One of the most important tasks I have before any plane trip is to decide on a knitting project. For most domestic flights, I usually settle on a pair of socks. I worked on skirts when on Craft Cruises to Alaska and again to Australia–large projects that took lots of time but only a few skeins of yarn.
For this trip I decided to limit myself to one skein of laceweight yarn and work on a shawl/wrap. I got it started last week so I’d be sure that I liked the yarn/needles/stitch pattern combination.
The yarn is Scrumptious Lace by Fiberspates: 1093 luxurious yards of 45% silk and 55% merino. I’m using U.S. size 3 needles. The glow-in-the-dark markers are from Hill Country Weavers. If I drop the knitting in the dark, I’ll be able to find it!
I’ll take photos of my progress during the travels and post them on Instagram. Follow me at annbuddknits.
safe and happy travels
Very pretty pattern!
Lovely fall color!
Thanks for coming to our Guild retreat, I really enjoyed your class – especially learning how to fix edge stitches. I’m glad you mentioned your glow in the dark markers, they definitely stand out when you find them on the floor. So happy I could return your lost marker before you even noticed it missing! Hope to see you at our next retreat!
