Off Again!

Big world shaking decisions must be made, what to take to the island???

Wednesday morning, I am off to Bois Blanc Island for an Insel Haus knit retreat. Ya, I know, just got back from guild retreat, what can I tell you, I lead a hard life. Will be on the island for 5 days with 2 travel days, that would be 5 days of lazy island knittin’ and unfortunately not much travel knitting. The State of Michigan frowns on knitting while driving, personally I do not understand but there you have it. There will be knitting in the car on the 45 minute ferry ride to the island.

So now, the dilemma of what to pack, not what clothes, which projects, of course.  This is a huge only because once on the island, while there is peace, quiet and lots of time to knit, if you don’t have something you can’t run to your LYS for that needle you forgot. The other problem is, what if I run out of knitting, what will I do, OMG, I will have nothing to do. Of course, the reality of it is there is no way in hell this will ever happen when one is packing a year’s worth of stuff.

Whatever I decide will be good, bad or whatever, I guess.

this is stuff in process,

for sure,

I am not a monogamous knitter,

ok, not even close



stuff that OMG,

I might want to start,

you just in case,

you know it could happen,

I could finish the other stuff



Oh and the camera, tri-pod go also, because you know it is an island and there are lots of really good photo ops.

Will try to post from the island if I can you figure out how, and well, sometimes the best laid plans of mice and man, you know…………………………
