Phew! I just got back from a whirlwind trip to Sequim, a little coastal town on the Olympic Peninsula. It’s pronounced “Squim” (rhymes with “him) it’s as fun to say as it is to visit! We spent 4 days hiking on Hurricane Ridge, tide pooling on Rialto Beach, and eating delicious local seafood. Ollie spent his days barking at seagulls, running after seagulls, and trying to eat seagull poop.
And what else did I do? Oh, right… knitting.
Lots of knitting!
In fact, between all time driving between natural wonders, and mornings watching flocks of birds fly up and down the beach, I made it three-quarters through a pair of lovely lace-y socks! (A Christmas present for a lucky someone!)
After all that relaxation, I’m ready for another vacation!
What do you like to knit while on vacation?
ooh pretty, they look like ‘my cup of tea’ socks with the pattern the other way up
Ooh yeah… Maybe I know my next project?
Socks and shawls (depending on how complex) are always good for holiday travel – you get a lot of knitting out of not too much yarn! 🙂
