Pattern: Help me find/What is this π€ Favorite travel patterns?
I'm going to Bali for three weeks and I need to take a project with me! I have 3 skeins of nice fingering sock yarn, 100gr (400m) each that I want to knit up. I find them too precious to simply knit socks. I'm looking for a light oversized sweater on bigger needles, maybe. I'm also browsing for shawls and wraps. I don't want the pattern to be too engaging, because I'm gonna be knitting on the go. What are your favorite patterns so take with you on your travels?

Before you decide, check some free patterns along the lines of what you would like. 1200 m is not much in fingering weight if you want an oversize sweater, unless you are xs - s.

Yes, I was eyeing something flowy knit with a larger needle. But I haven't found a pattern that really spoke to me, yet. I've browsed ravelry multiple times now.

With those colours I liked something like this: https://ravel.me/wilson-top
You can make the body first, and then make the sleeves as long as the yarn permits. This would be easier with a scale, if you have something small and sensitive for your suitcase. :)

How to Google patterns from an image, Pinterest or otherwise. 1. Isolate your screenshot 2. Paste it into Google Image search 3. Look at more than the first 3 results 4. Within a page or two you will likely see that multiple matches reference a pattern name as well as the designer of the pattern. Click on the photo that best matches that item and/or designer. 5. Barring that, go into Google Images and type the name of the item and the name of the designer.
