Packing for a Retreat

Yesterday, while I was out knitting with my friends, I found myself in a dire predicament. I ran out of knitting.
It started innocently enough. I ripped out my 10 stitch blanket...my second start at the 10 stitch blanket. This is not a difficult project. I had slipped the stitches purlwise instead of knitwise and it changed the whole look of the blanket. It had to go.
I ripped out my End Paper mitts. They have been hibernating for a year or two and I just wasn't feeling the love for them. They were the next project to be ripped out.
I was left with my Dorothy Gale socks. I knit on the first sock until I realised that I had left the pattern at home.

I was out of knitting. There was nothing I could do except go home. (we will totally ignore the fact that I was knitting in a yarn store and that I could have started a new project...which I just realised now)

This leads me to the subject of this post. I am packing to go on a two day retreat. I will be away from the city and any yarn shops, without my car, and I will have to knit only only the projects I have managed to stuff in my Rubbermaid tote.

Keeping mind that this is only a two day retreat, I have packed

1. Ladybug Socks (they might get ripped out and turned into Nutkins)
2. Dorothy Gale Socks (pattern is packed)
3. Fern Leaf Shawl
4. Mystic Light Shawl
5. 10 stitch blanket (started for the third time...I think I've finally gotten the hang of it
6. Lady Eleanor
7. Raining Cats and Dogs Socks
8. the hat that used to be End Paper Mitts

I was also going to pack Mystic Roses and the Crown Prince Shawl but then I remembered that I was only going to be gone for two days and that I had to leave room for the wine, chocolate and chips.
