Picking the right knitting is so important for successful travel. I was delighted to find Romi Hill’s Artesian Shawl about a week before leaving for Europe this summer.
This particular shawl only uses one skein of sock yarn. I immediately remembered a very interesting skein that has real silver in the fiber. I was almost certain I would never use it. Small project, lots of interest.
This project would have been enough for the whole trip (especially since I did some yarn shopping; see previous post). But of course I also brought a whole sweater’s worth of yarn “just in case!”
There was lots of knitting in public. Knit In Public Day landed on my rest day in Grasmere, England. But as you might imagine, taking selfies while knitting is tricky. So instead I got caught knitting after dinner in the Aquavit on the boat on the Danube.
