First of all, I have to apologize for the quality of the pictures in this post. Tonight we’re headed to the bay area, and tommorrow we’re flying to China for vacation (a 3-city tour) – and as of now, even the camera is packed. So you’re going to have to deal with grainy, dull photos from my Palm. =)

Every trip I go on, I absolutely have to bring a knitting project. This time, I have been scratching my head, trying to figure out what to bring. Something from my pool of WIPs?

My WIPs stats, as of today:

- A lace mohair shawl

- Backyard Leaves scarf

- A sweater

- 3 knitted/crocheted handbags, waiting for either a lining, or to be seamed

None of these are terribly appealing for travel; I would like a break from charts, a sweater would be MUCH too hot for summer weather in China, and the handbag finishings isn’t really travel-friendly. So, just for this trip, guess what I have casted on for:

(Claudia Handpainted Yarn, in Plumicious)

I know, I know, I swore off socks not too long ago, based on a disasterous first experience. But I knew it was only a matter of time that all the sock yarn out there, in all their colorful goodness, would entice me back to give them another chance. So… [taking a deep breath]… here I am. =)

So we’re all packed up and ready to go…
Wish me luck with those socks! (I may need it)
