10.13.2003 :: wish list
Here is something I am drooling over. Join me? I absolutely love this knitting bag! But do I love it $120 dollars worth?? I think not. Well, it's time to save my pennies. But will I spend them all on a bag like this? Where are the knock offs that I so crave?
On Monday, Blog city is going to shut the gates for some maintenance. I will be awol for the day. But they claim it will make it a better city. Easier to get in and out of. We'll see. Improvement is good. Especially lately! So, I'll see you on Tuesday, I hope.
And knitsmiths.....if you are reading.....I won't be at knitsmiths until November. Band season you know. I must be the supportive parent! I miss you guys. Knit on, see you soon. I will be in Methuen for the band competition while you are meeting this week!

Well, Leah, thanks for asking. I think my favorite is either the soft irish tweed bag or the classic herringbone bag. sigh......
Charlotte and Kim may be on to something. I may have to look into making it. But the laziness in me would much rather buy one. My eyes will be looking out for a similar one.
And Leah, you are absolutely right...it IS just the beginnning. Now that you are sucked into this knitting world, there is no end! Welcome to my world.!
Thanks to Charlotte for the wooden handle tip! :)sandy [thehurley4@comcast.net]

The last time I was in JoAnn's, I saw similar handbag handles for about $5/pair. I would guess that there are sewing patterns available to make a bag which would use those handles. So you might be able to knock it off yourself for just a fraction of the $120 price.Charlotte [ca 04@mindspring.com]

Oh, Charlotte's idea is a good one! Get out your sewing machine, girlfriend!
Good luck to Derek & Bethany on the band competition, and we'll see you on Tuesday. xxooKim [gibknits@earthlink.net]
