Northward Bound

We are D.C.-bound today ... woohoo! If nothing else, I'm excited to start on my traveling project, the full-size Clapotis. ;-) To distract myself over the long weekend after I finished the second PICC arm band, I whipped up a little Dream Swatch using the leftovers from my mini-Clap.

Pattern: Dream Swatch
Source: Knit and Tonic
Yarn: SWTC Bamboo, color Bougainvillea, less than 1 skein

I only cast on 18 stitches instead of 24, because I prefer my headbands on the thinner side. But I didn't account for the stockinette rolling, so it's a touch too thin now. Next time, 24 stitches. I also don't remember offhand how long it is -- I knit until I was sick of it. :-)

Okay, gotta finish packing ... I tend to pack my diversions (yarn, needles, books) before I get around to packing socks and cosmetics. Hey, I have priorities.
