My “Travelry” Series incorporates small, but nevertheless rewarding projects which are excellent to do while travelling; small enough to ft into any bag, impressive/fun enough to get fellow travellers talking and great items to wear – or to give away as a present! Socks are ideal knitting projects when travelling, and you may already have tried the “Travelry” Basic Sock Pattern.

Meine „Travelry“ Serie beinhaltet lauter kleine Strickprojekte, die perfekt in jede Tasche passen – genau richtig, wenn man unterwegs ist.

“Travelry” ZigZag Socks: These socks have an textured zigzag pattern made entirely out of knit and purl stitches for an easy knit. The pattern came to me as I was trying out various combinations of knit and purl stitches.

Zickzack-Socken: Diese Socken haben ein texturiertes Zickzackmuster, das ganz aus rechten und linken Maschen besteht. Das Muster ist entstanden, als ich verschiedene Kombinationen von rechten und linken Maschen ausprobiert habe.

Diffculty/Schwierigkeit: Fairly easy – honestly! Recht einfach - ehrlich!
