• Time: 1–2 hours

🧵 Perfect for: Plane rides, long layovers, road trips (if you're not driving!)
🔗 Kynova kit to try: Baby Octopus Mini Kit 🐙

2. Granny Squares

• Project size: One square = one session

• Why it travels well: Easy to memorize, modular, uses small yarn balls

• Pro tip: Bring a zip pouch of pre-cut yarn segments

Stitch a few during your commute, and by the end of the week—you’ve got half a blanket.

3. Bookmarks & Mug Rugs

• Style: Slim, flat, and fast

• Stitches: Try moss stitch or simple lace patterns

• Yarn: Fingering or DK for a refined feel

Great as small gifts or quick inventory for craft fairs.

4. Headbands & Hair Accessories

• Materials: A few yards of worsted yarn, 4.0–5.0mm hook

• Closure: Use buttons or tie strings—no need for elastic

• Pattern ideas: Ribbed textures, shell stitches, twisted knot styles

Keeps your hair in place while traveling and adds instant style.

5. Simple Bracelets or Anklets

• Great for: Beach trips, summer vacations

• Add-ons: Beads, charms, or embroidery floss

• Storage: One tiny pouch = 5+ finished pieces

6. Phone or Glasses Pouches

• Why it works: Small rectangle project, repetitive pattern
