What I Did On My Summer Vacation: Not Much Knitting

ha!  i bet you thought i'd be posting more pictures of my vacation that i have yet to leave on and yet have come back from.  nope, not today.  i'll save the last stop for another day.

but i will show you what i knitted or started knitting.

so in anticipation of plenty of time just hanging out on a boat, i packed 3 projects:  one simple garter stitch scarf in noro iro (inspired by this one);  one french market bag; and one lacy scarf made from my own homespun.

what did i manage to finish?  one simple garter stitch scarf (which was knit primarily on the car trip to nyc).

see, proof that i knit on the boat (or at least i draped the unfinished scarf on the railing of the boat)

this scarf was made with two skeins of noro iro.  i cast on 24 stitches with size 10.5 addi turbos.

how far did i get on any other projects?

far enough on my french market bag to manage to take a picture of the yarn cake.

give me a break!  i was playing bingo, working out at the ship gym (I KID YOU NOT-- EVERY DAY BABY!!), spending money at the casino ... who had time to knit?!
