Pattern help

Came in to work to find a pretty bag containing two balls of Blue Sky Alpacas Worsted yarn, and a lovely card from Nancy. Thank you! Cuddly soft yarn in a good colour, what in the world do I knit with it? It happened that today was a mite chilly

Saturday random

Saw AAA get into my friends locked car in under five minutes, turning up only thirty five minutes after they were called. Wonderful service! I've never seen anyone break into a car before. Taught two people to knit today, mother and daughter. It went surprisingly well. Got a

Factoids

Remind me never to drink a whole can of Redbull. Never again. Jittery and fast-forward-speed all morning, much to the amusement of my officemates, dull and nauseaus all afternoon. Next time I'm sticking with grapefruit juice. Still working on the back of the summer purse. Planned

Summer purse

Finished the front of my handbag. I think I'm going to need a fastener. There is an inset pocket, topped off with a half inch of contrast-coloured ribbing. I like it so far. There will be a patch pocket inside the back, and contrast-coloured sides and

Design mine

I started making the new purse. The front is mostly knitted now, it's lime, turquoise and yellow variegated Lily Sugar n Cream, the inset pocket is lime Sugar n Cream. Picked up a light blue canvas belt in an army surplus store to use as the strap. Pictures
