I 'noodled' , as my dear friend S. says, on ideas for my gifted yarn for quite a while. I finally saw my idea in the shape of the knitting tote she sent it in! I wish I could get it to show properly, but blues are very tricky in photography for some reason. The blue on top of this purse is a deep turquoise in real life, not light blue. The colors together are quite striking...   Here's the outdoor shot...   Thank you A. for the colorful yarn! I think the next one will be lime green with a few tweaks to the pattern. I forgot how tightly Lamb's Pride yarn felts, so I'll have to make some adjustments. But for a prototype, I'm very happy with this bag. (All your bags are prototypes dillweed, admit it. You fly by the seat of your pants every time you pick up those bamboo sticks.) Oh, you're speaking to me again? (Damn straight. Somebody has to keep you honest.) I AM honest! (Have you by chance read yesterday's entry? Hmmm?) Well, I also try to be funny once in a while. That was me being funny. (Do you hear me laughing?) Have you EVER laughed? (No comment.) Just keepin' things honest.  :-)
