project ideas?

[silverkeys7.livejournal.com]

here's a funquestion for you...

what should i make with the yarn i bought today? it's about 100g of white, 3-ply synthetic baby yarn.



some criteria:
1) i'm only a beginning knitter; i can do basically anything involving knit and purl and k2tog, but i'm not exactly sure how to do increases...
2) i only have access to the straight needles that they sell in the covered market (i didn't bring any supplies with me, and there is no yarn shop in downtown oxford! :p )
3) i'm only here for another 2 months, so it should be relatively quick.

:) i'd like to make something small, quick, pretty; maybe something i can give to my tutor as a thank you gift when I leave.

any suggestions would be appreciated :)
