I have a trip coming up with 30+ hours of train time. I'm planning on bringing two knitting projects: a shawl and a sweater. (I'll also have downtime on the not-train part of the journey, hence two chonker projects.)
The shawl is Vistosa (appropriate since I'll be in Barcelona for a bit). ravelry.com/patterns/library/v…
The sweater is ASTRAEUS ravelry.com/patterns/library/a… because I've had the yarn for that since last year. I'll be color flipping it so the background will be old gold and the colorwork will be a purple gradient.
Anyone else get excited planning out their travel knitting?

The agreement on marine biodiversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction, also known as the high seas treaty, was reached in 2023 with much fanfare in marine conservation circles, partly because it sets up a system for establishing marine protected areas (MPAs) in international waters.
On Sept. 19, Morocco became the 60th country to ratify the deal, which means it will become binding international law in January 2026.

in reply to OtherRyn • • •I have a holiday coming up in November with my siblings. I have NO IDEA what project(s) to bring, but the thought of not having something to knit/crochet is unbearable. But it will have to be something that IS NOT Christmas Gift Knitting For Siblings, since obviously, they are going to be right there! (And really, I want to have all my Christmas gifts done before then.)

in reply to Kerr Avonsen (she/her) • • •OMG I have yet to conquor Sock Mountain. My last attempt was 15+ years ago. I was half way through first sock, realized I'd made a ginormous adult booty. Got so frustrated, drove to my LYS, honked horn. Passed sock-booty out the window, needles, ball and all... "Take it away from me!!" 😂😂🤣😂

Indeed! My first pair of socks are too big, they are used solely as slipper-socks. That is, in fact, my only pair of socks.
However, I am working on my second pair of socks, and my Cunning Plan is: spiral tube socks. These are socks without heels, done with 4x4 ribbing, which, every five rows, you move one row over, so that it spirals. These were apparently popular to knit for soldiers in WWII, because (a) one size fits most, and (b) when the "heel" area starts getting worn, you can just turn the sock with the worn side up, and keep wearing it.
My thought is, that once I've made them, I'll either make more of the same, or I'll use them to get a better idea of how to make socks that fit my feet (with heels).
