Travelling socks

As promised, I cast on a pair of socks for Dave for my travel knitting.

Nothing fancy, just a simple Vanilla. I got it started on the way to class last Monday, so it was ready for the trip. With two days of at least 6 hours travel (airport waiting + flight), I figure I can get quite a bit accomplished.

The yarn is our (now discontinued) Tabby Cat. I decided to hold this one back from the shop because the dye went all funky. I don't know how well you can see, but some of the green has an orangish tinge to it - it's actually kind of on the barfy side. Definitely not one of my better creations. But Dave is colour-blind, so he probably won't even notice!

I hope to have some good progress to show you when I get back. Who knows - maybe as you read this, I'm stretched out on a lounger by the pool... knitting away...
