finished little cream bag


at last, this is the finished little picot bag. i can't say much as i don't want the recipient to know who it is for. this bag is the terra knitted gift bag from http://iliveonafarm.com/terra.html . i knitted mine with linea merino dolly maxi. it took a little less than one skein on #6 dpn's. i found using all 5 needles was easier. this adorable little bag is easy but is very involved. it has a provisional cast on, a picot edge, a grafter 3 needle hem about 3/4 inch from the top, 2 cables, icord with a different color at the beginning and end, 5 dpn's and 12 buttons sewn on. the pattern mistakenly says 11 buttons. i totally enjoyed knitting this bag. it makes me smile but don't try to do it as a quick knit. the blue yarn is knitpicks woa in chambray. 8/2007
