What Happens in Vegas

In this case, what happened in Vegas...came home. Remember that little trip I took in February? I went to a conference and since I had all kinds of time to myself and few responsibilities beyond going to lectures, I got to do a lot of knitting! Most of the yarn that I packed got used.

After 4 days, I came home with a Lollipop skirt all but completed. The knitting was done, but it took me all this time to get around to putting elastic in the waistband and weave in a few ends. Yeah, it's a lot harder to accomplish productive knitting in my regular life.

And of course, the obligatory twirling action shot:

I'll be adding a few project details to my Ravelry project page soon.

Optimistic

I'm packing for a 5-day long business conference. This will be a no-frills trip for me, with no social functions I have to attend, so I'm packing really light.

I thought you might be amused by this glimpse of my little carry-on suitcase!

My clothes are on the left, and about half of the volume is taken up by balls of Cascade. We'll see how much I actually get done!
