I always take 3-5 projects, and I never need that many. Have a good vacation!

Have a great time on vacation! I also take too much, but that gives you *choices*.

I also take way too many knitting projects when we go on vacation. So far I haven’t run out of things to work on–the problem is finding any time at all—but I’m not taking any chances.

Have a wonderful vacation with your family, Sheri!

Oh, I’m so glad to see you enjoy that book too! I bought it about two months ago and I’m just fascinated by the patterns. Now, if only Noro wasn’t so expensive…
As far as vacation knitting goes, I’m trying harder to be more realistic. Last summer we went to the beach and I took 3 socks, and only knit about one whole one in the entire time we were there (8 days!). But I did the exact opposite this past time- a friend and I went to Atlanta for an overnighter and I didn’t pack any knitting because I didn’t think there would be any downtime- and by 10pm that night I was about to go insane! I guess we all should just try for a happy medium.

Like you, I always over do it on packing the yarn projects. I way over pack but I would rather do that then be stuck with idle hands!!!

I went on a week’s vacation and took 2 pairs of socks and an afghan (and my scrapbooking) and was shocked when I only finished one sock! I have a plane trip coming up that is 8 hours, so I hope to be knitting up a storm on the plane since I won’t have anywhere to go. :0)

I love Jane Ellison’s new book, too. I have already gotten some SG Chunky to make the bobbled sweater. I’m also spinning some Gale’s Art BFL (Peacock) in singles, trying to get a long repeat, to make a SG Worsted sweater from the book.

I hope if someone is going to name a color after Clara they’ll spell her last name right (Parkes).
