At the last farmer's market, one of the growers wanted to know if I would knit her a market bag.
I said sure thing, and showed her some yarn I had that I thought would work.
She approved the colors and I set to.
I told her I would make it as large as the amount of yarn would allow.
I didn't realize what this would actually LOOK like when finished.
It took a long time, but I finished it today.
Once I got a really good look at it, I promptly gave her the name...
Big Bertha.
22 inches long, 19 inches wide.
The good news is that she felted up really nicely. I was a little worried because sometimes this kind of yarn tends to warp for no good reason.
Bertha decided she was having none of that and came out of the washer a very handsome bag.
Now, I think it's time to cast on something tiny. And say goodbye to Bertha.
I'm off to look at patterns of little things...
