The project(s) I want to take camping are einband yarn for the 22.5* (yes real wool yarn, shocker right?). I also got some d-stash from someone and it is luscious blues, greens, and some orange, 100% merino from Ellen's 1/2 Pint Farm. That stuff will be going for a good Wingspan. Only problem is I am feeling really lazy and I don't want to wind the yarn up in to cakes!
I found a nice art portfolio with the clear plastic sleeves inside, about 20 of those sleeves, and I actually slid all the patterns that I want to knit again and the ones I do want to knit into it, recycled the other ones (because if I am not going to knit it, then why have a printed copy since they are in my Ravelry page. And I bought some ten cent presentation sleeves to stick the projects I am taking with me in a small binder.
Well, gotta figure out someway to not tangle up the merino when winding.

Very Sleepy
I am plugging through my internship and it is very slow today. So what I am doing is working on my Hitchhiker, I am almost done with my 17 tooth. Haven't done much on my wingspan but I am almost halfway through the 5th wing. I sort of want the scrap version to be done because I have some nice yarn to work on the wingspan and see how pretty it can be with something other than acrylic! I have also been tooling through Ravelry and found this sweater calld the Waterford Cardigan put out by Lion Brand. Looks really nice with a 4 button off center button band that might be easy for a first sweater, but I might get something else for the Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick. I have no problem with Lion Brand but looking into other yarn gives me options. I also looked at the Ship Wreck Shawl by Knitting Harpy. Yeah, I think I will try that some other time becasue lace knitting sort of scares me for some reason. Well gotta go.
