It's all about me!
I finished making a knitting bag for myself the other day!
This is the first bag I've made expressly for my own little self in the longest time. Most of the bags and wallets I use are either prototypes or goof-ups. I'd seen so many cute knitting bags like this one on Etsy that I wanted one too. I adapted a commercial pattern to make it capacious enough and I used my serger, which has been sadly neglected of late. There are some things about this design I would tweak if I ever make this bag again (including the use of said serger) but on the whole I'm tickled pink.
Here's a peek inside with the latest example of my sock obsession. This yarn + this pattern = the coolest socks ever....blog post forthcoming.

So very cute and looks to be a very useful style. I use to knit and crochet more in my younger years, but only very simple patterns. Looks great and it is fun to make something for yourself isn't it. :)
You do rock! And so does that knitting bag - awesome job!
Have a great weekend : )
Very nice and spacious bag! I don't knit, but I've recently been obsessed with making pom poms, just for myself... Thanks for your post on my blog, great to hear from you again.

Hehehe. Quite pleased to be described as Rockin'!
Thanks. I will pass it on soon.
Yeah! I'm rocking too! Neat :) And so is that bag you made yourself, sweet!
I really like the material you used for that bag and the style of it. It's blockish but very cool!
And congrats on the rockin' badge! You deserve it! :)
Lovely bag and well done on your rocking blogger award! Sara x
