Sew Crazy...

I sewed my KSKS pal's bag yesterday. I've made a couple improvements by changing the closure and adding more pockets, as well as more top-stitching to hold things down.

Here's the interior view. There's an interior flap that lifts up to reveal larger pocket, with sewn-in pockets for miscellaneous sock knitting tools.

I've started to fill it up and put together a little key-fob type thingy to keep scissors, needle threader, darning needles, coiless safety pins and stitch markers all in one place.


I had enough fabric leftover to make a small reversible tote for myself. Here's a size comparison.

Here what the other side looks like.

After all that sewing, I felt the urge to cast-on for something on larger needles. Three balls of Brooks Farm 4 Play are well on their way to become clapotis #3. Click here for a close-up of the yarn. Isn't it divine?


I had a wonderful time at social knitting at Commuknity. I've just started the heel flap on the koigu socks.


I love knitting there, but it sure is easy to pick-up up more yarn on sale.


Christina and I went to the fabric store and I'm going to sew a bag for her with the pink fabric. The fabric on the bottom is for yet another bag for myself.

Have a great week everyone!
