I am so excited about this. I can't really explain why, either. I'm making a little bag* for Nettie for Christmas. First off I found some really pretty yarn.
And the knitting is going easily. Except I couldn't find the end of the skein inside the ball so it's not pulling out all nice and easy, I keep having to unwind the ball as I go. My plan is to make a rectangle about twice as long as it is wide, then decrease the stitches from both ends to make a triangular end. I'll fold the rectangle in half and sew it up with the triangle for a flap (with a snap closure added later). Then I'm going to felt it!
Like I said, I'm unreasonably excited about the project. I'll post pictures when I'm finished.
*Like a comsetic's bag or for odds and ends in her backpack or something, it'll be about 4"x4" when I'm done.
What's on my mind.
