Another Story bag finished! It is such a great feeling, to be completeing all these projects all at once. I am pleased with how everything seems to be coming together. And it seems to give me so much more headspace. Little bags made to fit the the story book in perfectly, and then enough space for the knitted characters in the main part of the bag.
I love how an idea develops. I had initially thought of just a bridge with a stream running beneath it to symbolise the story, but as I was putting it together it developed into the banks, and then the squareness to match the bag. Little details probably lost on the recipient, but that make me feel rather satisfied. It can get rather addictive this creating lark, but I am going to tear myself away from it to get on with the allotment, honestly I am, but I still have a 6 inch ring to finish, and a bag to make, then there is the guild challenge I need to start spinning for, and...
... see what I mean! Addictive! But off to sow some seeds... tomorrow!

A while ago a friend requested me make some bunting for her Mum. I had a go, made it, and then realised I'd made it way too big, as she wanted to hang it from her mantel piece. So this is mark II. And I am really rather pleased with it. I think it actually looks really rather at home here, so may well be tempted to make some more for us. Well, when I get a moment ot two!!
It even gives me an excuse to use my new labels. Makes me feel all official now!
