But not borrowed or blue. A long time ago (feels like a lifetime ago actually) I had an idea for a felted bag. But it wasn’t the right time to make it. Rules, appearances, etc. So I didn’t. But I kept it in my sketchbook, and the other day I decided it was time. So I rummaged through my stash of Lamb’s Pride Bulky and pulled out the lime green and the pale pink. And I swatched. And I felted the swatch. And then I knitted. And after a short while I had this:

And I’m sorry, but don’t you just love it? I love it. I really do. I had all sorts of notes and ideas about the details (like the i-cord bind off for the edges) and it all just worked. I love it. I’m calling it Saltwater Taffy. Because of the colors and the twists. I’ll say it again. I love it!
At least being sick all week got me something.
The bag is fantastic! I have visions of Christmas presents for next year already. So, when will the pattern be up for sale?
Wow…it’s beautiful all felted up! Love it, love it!
The bag is incredibly cute.
That’s mind boggling. You have to love it!
I hope you’re feeling better.

I wish you and your family a happy and most of all healthy New Year!
I do! I do! I do just love it!
