If I were doing a plain hat, I'm sure it would go much quicker >_<

Alas, it has cables in it. Combined with my penchant of messing up the simplest of things, I guess I'm not surprised its taking this long >_<

yay the bag is done

[Sakura8]

Omigosh, that is so cute! Seriously, I love that bag! I bet you could make tons and sell them for little girls. So awesome, Rachael!

[YoshesMom]

Thanx I'm pretty proud of it the only problem is that its made out of alpacha and the strap is ITCHY

[HatsuneMiku]

ooo maybe you can take another yarn and like wrap it around the strap .. like how a slinky is when it's stretched out .. and then the softer yarn would be the part that touches your skin and will be less itchy =D ..

Awesome bag, Rachael!! You're a knifty knitter extraordinaire! :D

I'm almost done the hat from h-e-double-hockey-sticks. Done with the cables finally and they even look like owls. Just setting up for the decrease now.

At my next opportunity, I'm going to learn the magic loop technique. Dislike dpns intensely after this :<

How's everyone else's projects going?

Good luck on finishing that hat!

I've yet to get motivated enough to do anything after the yard sale. I need to get off my butt and do stuff though. I have so many things to do!

[fishcurl]

Thank you! With this hat, I need all the luck I can get :P

I never find time to knit at home so I started a small group of friends to meet once a week and knit. Tonight is the second meeting. I'm hoping to finish the hat before I go so I can finally give it and the owl cozie to my friend.

Yeah! My knitting group is Tues. nights. I'll miss it this week unfortunately.
