Knitting for the traveler.

What do you knit for a young friend who is going traveling for 6 months, going into summer, with limited backpack space?

I must admit I saw these online, somewhere, a long while ago - don't even remember where, but I have knit a few and they are always a hit.

Good way to use up those left over bits of sock yarn.

Mmm - wonder what else I can knit a sock for?
