Latest "accomplishment" - aptly named as I knit it during a week long trip that included two 6 hour plane rides. Link to pattern is

It is described as a simple pattern and that (in my opinion) is basically true but it took me a while to wrap my mind around it. It was my first time to work from a chart and several times I found myself reading the chart the wrong direction for the purl row. Having soldiered through it I feel as if I have crossed a milestone and advanced my skills a little. The cast on is also very different and I'm not sure that I did it exactly as is written but I managed to make it work.
(Knitted from Trekking Hand Art, 75% wool, 25% nylon)
