Knitted Bag

I finally got around to finishing off my niece's birthday gift.
The striped side...


The plain side...



Started: July 30, 2006
Finished: August 7, 2006
Pattern: Knitted Bag from "Toys to Knit"
Yarn: Odds and ends of sock yarn..from baby ull to koigu.
Adjustments: I cast on the number called for but instead of 4" it is 6" which doesn't really matter...I don't know how they used fingering yarn on a US#3 and got 45 sts in 4"...but whatever. So the bag is approximately 6" square.
It's perfect, and she will certainly love it.
I am finished the "Fetching" sets...I am just sewing in ends (yes I had enough yarn!)...the air is busted yet again (new one finally on order) so it is hard to do anything in this heat. Today it seems cooler...so far....

This bag is adorable! A great way to use up some left over yarn and a perfect gift for a little girl.
