The Vacation Knitting Checklist
What’s a vacation without some good knitting time?
Knitters know: Vacation knitting is some of the best knitting. But when you take your knitting on the go, it’s easy to leave an essential part of your knitting kit behind. Wrong size needles. No stitch markers. Instructions for just half of your project. Not enough yarn? *shudder*
Being without even one tool or skein of yarn can tank all of your knitting plans for the beach, the campsite, or the sidewalk café.
If you’ve been wondering about whether you can take your knitting needles and scissors on a plane, the checklist contains helpful links to answer those questions for the US and international travel.*
Set aside a few minutes in the lead-up to your travels to go through this knitting checklist. Then you can head out with the assurance that you have everything you need to do all the knitting your heart desires.

*Here are those links:
- It’s OK to take scissors with less than 4" blade on US planes.
- You can also bring knitting needles with you on a plane in the US.
- For international travel, it varies; see this thread on Ravelry for a thorough discussion about the rules for multiple countries.
