Me and my bag...don't we look jaunty? Colourful and homespun? Happy for the day ahead?
Yeah, too right, it's Thursday and I'm just off out the door in ten minutes to walk up into town to my favourite cafe for a couple hours cappuccino-drinking-hexagon-hooking-natty-nattering. Have I told you before how much of a buzz I get waking up knowing it's Thursday? Yes, I suppose I have told you on numerous occasions, I suppose by now you are getting to know me and my life quite well eh?
I spent a humungous amount of time yesterday sat at the pc, typing and crocheting and counting and puzzling and photographing this delicious bag of mine, writing out the how-to for it. I've just proof-read it and I think it's all correct and makes sense :: so for those of you who wish to give it a whirl, the pattern/tutorial can be found over to the left there, down at the bottom listed as a page. I could not get to the flowers, I was sooooo tired by the end of it I couldn't do any more, so the how-to for the little flowers and leaves will follow next week.
And to those of you who do not crochet, please forgive the extreme crochet-ness of my blog this week, something un-hooky will come tomorrow.
Right, I am late for Knit and Natter, dashing out the door now, byeeee, toodle-oo, see you all tomorrow

I am in love with that bag.

I've really got the crocheting bug after seeing your post this week but I should be making Christmas gifts!! Thanks for sharing the bag - I'm going to try this in the new year.

I LOVE the crochet-ness coming from Attic24 at the moment! (not to say that I don't love it always regardless....) Thank you SO much for bag and hexagons alike - both are greatly appreciated. :)
