Wrapped And Ready

If you hear reports of a woman popping one of the security screeners at LaGuardia Airport for laughing at her pound of multi-colored yarn, rest easy...that woman is not me.

My bag is packed, and there is knitting content within, as well as my Mini iPod (and charger). Realizing that much of my time at home could be spent slouching around in a nightgown gave me more freedom in terms of assigning space to yarn and needles. What you see is the start of a sleeve. My in-flight/holiday knitting project is the Raglan-Cap Sleeves Aurora Top. The green apple Classic Elite All Seasons Cotton from my streamlined stash.

I knit on the train to NYC, and I had finished both sleeves by the time the train pullled into Grand Central Station. I will be in Pittsburgh, with my parents, for the week, and I do not want to find myself without a project to see me through the remainder of the week. Worst case scenario may find me trolling Pittsburgh yarn stores to find an appropriate project to work on my #5 needles.

My parents are "interesting" people. And by "interesting" I mean that they do not have an ATM card. I made the decision not to bring my laptop, thus I will be without a computer and internet access until next Saturday. I feel as if I should be making my way to Pittsburgh by covered wagon. Jet travel seems too futuristic.

Enjoy your week.

Eat lots of turkey and gluten-filled carbohydrate dishes for me.
