Knitting across the channel

Today has been a different day; an unexpected day! But my knitting has come along with me. Out of the blue (for reasons that will remain closeted to me) I was invited across the Channel to pay a visit to the aquarium "Norsicaa" it was an early start to be followed by a long day with a considerable amount of travelling. I do quite like the travelling aspect of a holiday/trip, especially if i have not experienced it before. Today was a new experience! I travelled via the Channel Tunnel. Having travelled by air more recently I was aware that there was/could be some restriction in knitting needles, so I was a little anxious that my knitting could jot make the trip across with me. I was concerned as I had just started a new project of cable knitting... (Wrist warmers) Which I am enjoying seeing the results so far but I do feel a little fingers and thumbs with the cable needle and do feel like it is going to slip (and has done) but determined as I am I am hoping it comes with practice. So the project I brought with me (along with a skills book) is a project of cable knit wrist warmers which I am knitting in a lovely royal/electric blue, a yarn which I picked up at my local branch of sainsburys (worth a look people!)

Anyhow - (k)needless to say 😊 the needles and yarn made it through all checks and was happily click-clacking across the channel! En-route on way home now and just about to arrive and disembark from the Chunnel.

Can't wait for my next trip - might have to see if there is any discount yarn shops across the boarder!

Projects

Does anyone else ever get that feeling that there are a number of projects that they want to start and can't decide which one to do?
I don't know about anyone else but I often get the feeling when browsing through the various patterns that I'm waiting for one to jump of the page at me; also, I often (as a beginner get a number of small projects going, I eventually finish them; and then I want to move onto something else, this I then find is a step up on the skill ladder and I can't wait to start it. At this moment I am looking at projects which involve cabling or knitting in the round; and I have neither circular needles nor any cable needles! So I'm at a sticking point...
