I had the pleasure of a road trip this week with a couple of lovely ladies. I wasn’t driving so of course I had to take some knitting. It was only overnight so wanting to pack light I kept it to a set of dpns and a couple of balls of blue elann esprit that I have had for a looooong time. Plus a little Altoids tin with a pair of folding scissors and a darning needle. That was it. Minimalist knitting bag!

I started knitting a basic sock from memory on the way to our destination. Amazingly I had turned the heel by the time we arrived. On the drive back, I completed most of the foot.
