TUESDAY: TA-DAAAH!!
SEE what I finished making today??? I am SOOOO psyched!
THIS is my new knitting bag; I sent for this pattern from JENI and I have to tell you
it is so well written, easy to follow (even I can do it!--I who have just been moaning about not being able to follow patterns lol)
You can find this fantastic pattern on her website (linked above).
Here is the lining I chose (fun to use fabric you love)
In addition I learned how to box out corners and make drawstring cords neatly (!!)
all from this pattern. I can see that I will be making so many more of these beauties.....
Thank you Jeni for such wonderful writing and illustrations......
AND now I can start my next knitting project
Isn't this cute?? I may make it a bit longer--we'll see....
AND my bag matches my YARN (oh be still my heart!!)
the yarn is Cascade's Eco 2 and has such a lovely "hand"...
here is the bottom with the boxed out corners.
(I know I am gushing--but "ME is SO Proud!!) ;--)))
{Fabrics are Joel Dewberry (birds) and I don't know what the lining is--but I like it...}
So Big Happy Hugs, from
Julierose, La Blageuse
