What every knitter needs

Hello!

After purchasing my yarn-of-dreams, I decided that when I'm knitting in various places (my bed, the couch, the floor), it might be a good idea to have a bag of some sort to carry my stuff around. Especially my scissors. And needles. I have left my scissors and pins and needles loose on my bed before. Yes, I realize how cringe-worthy that is.

Incidentally, a very good word to describe me is "scatterbrained". Or more accurately, "selectively scatterbrained", because I always know where all my school books and homework is. I just loose the sharp, dangerous items that I use for my hobby. Good job, ten points for intelligence.

Anyway, easily sidetracked.... pictures!


 And before all the embroidery people out there have a heart attack, yes I know that my heart-shaped embroidery looks like a potato. I'm sorry. I had enough trouble figuring out why the fabric was not going where I was telling it to. And why there was a funny noise coming from the machine. Shh, don't tell anyone.


It isn't nicely finished or anything, but I like it. The green fabric is left over from the pillow that I made for Christmas, the pink is from a project that never happened and the gray is one of the many fabrics that I have gotten, used, stored, then found again a year later. It's like a never ending circle of surprises. I made up the pattern (no surprises there).

It's just a little bag to keep my work-in-progress-knits in, instead of having them sitting on the floor where my cats can cover them in fur. I love them, but my knitting should be sacred. And cat-free.

Have a nice end of week! (It feels like Thursday. Why can't it be Thursday?)
Bye!

P.S. Sorry for the terrible lighting in the photos, no amount of editing could save them from the impending doom of afternoon light.
