Grey, dull, grey

The swatch is still dull and grey, but I've knit a few more centimetres. I'm thinking hard about whether or not this will be a good travel project. On the one hand, it's a good candidate because it's straightforward and there will be a lot of knitting to be done (it's small-gauge). On the other hand, I'm using a cone of yarn, not balls, and that can be awkward to carry, especially when there are lots of other things that I'd like to have close to hand like computers and so forth that are a very different shape.

Thinking, thinking.

What else is there, though? I could nip out and get another ball of sock yarn to keep up the good sock travelling trick, but I feel like my feet are OK and summer is on its way. I'd like to have something on the go more appropriate.

I hope to be visiting some family, including some rather new family (under 12mo) and I could pop something off the needles for them EXCEPT that they're just about to move to Dallas, and I cannot believe that there is anything about knitted goods that fits in a Texan lifestyle, especially as summer rolls in.

Still thinking.
