I also knit a very warm heavy scarf for
a long time member of my church in Ottawa.
It is for the coldest of winter days.

I am reading so many books!
Still going on
Standing Facing the Stove
Orthodoxy by GK Chesterton
and have read a bit in
The Northern Thebaid.

The bag looks great! I'm so proud of you for learning new techniques and continuing on with your knitting!! Yay!!
ReplyDeleteYour bag is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHave fun with your knitting :-)
I love the bag! And that scarf looks wonderfully thick and squishy. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the bag ... and GKC! How I wish we could do a virtual knitting get-together so we could all swap knitterly and literary thoughts over a glass of wine in our pjs!
ReplyDeleteJoin my Ravelry group if you get a chance ... we could do virtual chats there.
Hugs!
Good going!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bag!!!! You should be very proud.
ReplyDeleteAnd that thick scarf looks so cozy!
The bag turned out great!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever tried this pattern for your dish cloths? http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/grandmothers-favorite
It's made the same way as you are already, but might help your edges look more even. Another idea is to slip the first stitch on every row.
We enjoy Chesterton but have yet to read Orthodoxy. Congrats on the finished projects...your knitting is looking good. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the bag!!
