Circles bag...

...finished at last! I ended up not using the zip, but I may insert it at a later date.  I made stripy sides and used a spotty fabric for the lining. I had toyed with the idea of coloured handles but went with simple black ones in the end. I'm pleased with the density of the crocheted panels, and having used it a few times now, it seems quite robust.



I used the same Rowan Fine Tweed that I used for my Fairisle Tam, so I only need to make a scarf and I shall be completely coordinated for Winter!

Next up is completion of the Stevenson sweater and then I have a polystyrene wreath base that is crying out for a tasteful crocheted covering! Before that, though, is a lovely commission for a painting of British wild flowers which I hope to start tomorrow.

  1. It's beautiful. Klimt would have wanted one to carry his paints around in for sure :)
