The Project - Weekend Getaway Satchel
10:52 AMThis is my never ending knitting project that I am determined to finish this year. I figure maybe if I post this demand on myself on this blog I may just succeed!
It's THAT project I keep putting away. I make something else, and then drag this back out - only to get frustrated and put it back away while I make something else. I have finished the sides, the back, and the red straps. They were all solid and no problem.
This is the pattern. I am on the line right above the green tape. I have a ways to go. When I finish the knitting I follow with embroidering more colors over this pattern - felting the wool - cutting the pieces to the right dimensions, and then putting it together. I'm very happy you don't have to line a felted bag!
Really, the hardest part is sorting and untangling all of the balls of yarn colors you use at the same time. It's a crazy mess!
Hope you have a great day! I had parking lot duty this morning at school - think 32-34 degree's and pounding freezing rain. Oh how I was wishing for a freezing rain day! I think I'm finally warming up! Sometimes you end up getting such a beautiful day for that job, and then days like today hit. It makes it interesting!
