My small portable projects are granny squares for lapghans. I usually
have a ball of yarn in the car along with a hook and also usually take granny squares with me are short vacations and when visiting family.

Laurie i liked your description
thank you mirjam og.net (Laurie) wrote: I'll crochet dishcloths but mainly my portable projects are cross stitch things. I keep stocked up on little kits like scissor keeps, needlebooks, bookmarks, and eyeglasses cases. When I traveled overseas I was able to pack my entire cross stitch gear in a 10x6 flat handbag. (I didn't take it on the plane although it would have made the flight bearable.) I give all the little projects away and even managed to replenish my stock of kits while in England. All those manor houses and museums... At home I stick to crochet and knitting but today I picked up a little kit and started working it a bit and had an overwhelming sense memory of London. :-) Laurie Washougal, WA |

Oh friends !!!
maybe we all can think about some possibel small carry around projects , i think first about some carrier bags, Am just sewing one for a friend who recently divorced , and now she has to combine shopping with work everytime she leaves the house , thought of sewing a foldable cloth bag for her, But i also thought that cloth bags, in fact several of them are ideal to store the small projects. Ever since i sewed Big cloth bags and keep a project in each , my room looks tidier [ i don`t mind but the husband does] it keeps all elements together you can grab it on way out and would get to destinantion , far from the house with threads for project A , and needles matching project B and pattern or page where you calculated measurements of project C..... mirjam |

Mirjam,
You are too organized with the cloth bags. I have one stuffed on a shelf ready to go out the door if I need it. Hugs, Nora |

Ohhh Wonderful you are the second Sunita i meet ,,,
nice to meet you here !!! welcome if i mised you before . I always find some minutes to work my Bagged project mirjam I usually take a small crochet project along, like a child's hat or scarf or socks (yes you can crochet socks!). If I feel like knitting, then one of those novelty scarves that needs no pattern or brain to be knit. Like the rest of you, I've learned always to pack *something* into my bag because down time is unpredictable but frequent. It used to be a book, now it's a UFO. Sunita |

I crochet socks all the time . What is yor favorite pattern ? I use
love to crochet socks or learn to crochet socks , both put out by annies attic. I am thinking of getting the new crocheted stocking book also. One thing I like about these books is that the offer patterns for gartered heels. The only think I do differently is I change the size needle and yarn so I can wear them in my shoes. I also knit socks , I just crochet alot faster than I knit. Coggie (Sunita) wrote in message . com...

not sure if other message went thru.
I also crochet socks and love them . What patterns do you use? I use either love to crochet socks or learn to crochet socks both put out by Annie's attic . I have thought of picking up crocheted stockings also out by them. The thing I love about these patterns is the gartered heels. I do change the weight of yarn and the size of hook so I can wear them in my shoes . I also knit socks but I crochet faster than I knit so I tend to crochet them more.
