travel knitting, practice run
Greetings from NYC! We're on a quick weekend trip to NYC so the boys can see grandma again before our big trip to Germany. I got to do a trial run of packing the bags and the knitting. This trip: two suitcases and jess in my knitting bag. After giving my hand and wrist a little rest, I wanted to start back slowly, so I decided to start up a jess sleeve. Here's where I was when we left.

pretty little increases all in a row
I started this at Knitsmiths a while back and had a hard time talking and keeping track of the sequence of increases and decreases. So, not much net progress was made, if you know what I mean. But I'm back on track again now, knitting in the dark all the way here. I should have a finished sleeve by the time we get back!
(This trip is pure quality time with grandma - no time for yarn shopping. I've tried telling hubby that the boys would really love to see KnitNY, but he's not buying it!)

jesses
Take the boys to Benny's Burritos! Benny will like having his own burrito shop. Too bad you don't have any knit shopping time... I would love to see you and your mom again, not to mention meeting the little ones! Maybe next time.
Trip to Germany? When I went I brought back a suitcase full of yarn. I was glad I packed an extra one that folded flat in the bottom of my real suitcase. Good thing about yarn - it's lightweight.
