Some great tips here. It’s amazing sometimes how you get a load knitted and others when you expect to have a lot of knitting time, you hardly manage a row!

Because most of my knitting is for samples (often in sizes tinier than I can squeeze into), I decided on a recent week-long trip that the main project would be a shortsleeved sweater for me. With 4hr flights (plus delays), hanging about airports, early mornings on a balcony, and time in the passenger seat of a hire car etc, I managed all but the neckband (forgot the sewing up needle) and started playing with a shawl idea on the flight home.
I had packed the sock/shawl yarn and a small crochet project to be on the safeside.
For a long trip I tend to go for socks and shawls because a few skeins of sock and lace yarn take up a small space in my case but present a good amount of knitting. And sock knitting in tropical climes is a great way to meet locals.
