I've been wanting a little bag to carry my knitting or crocheting around in. Nothing huge, just a small bag that can hold a few balls of yarn and the project itself, so I can carry my knitting on the bus or wherever I want without it getting all tangled up in my backpack. But sheesh, every bag I saw was either monstrously large (large enough to carry several major projects) or made out of something I did not care for (toile, denim, or faux-tapestry were the common offenders). So I decided to make one, because what's the good of being all handy and stuff if you never use it?
...
I chose two funky fabrics: a blue with orange goldfish for the liner, and a bright orange "batik" (the proper batik dyeing, but mysteriously no actual batik work on it). It took me a while to find the right handles, but when I did they were on massive sale, so I was happy.
I won't bore you with endless details of construction and so on. It was a lined bag with two fake bamboo handles. Here it is (with apologies for the crappy image quality):
I'm quite happy with how it turned out.
