Karma Slave

So a few days ago I finished my version of Zeeby's Bag, which is a pattern from Stitch'n'Bitch. I say 'my version' because I used different colors and put the inside pocket on the outside; otherwise I followed the pattern exactly.

I'm fairly satisfied with it. Next time I'm going to use a sturdier yarn; the one I used causes too much slouch and stretch, so the bag is really only suitable for knitting projects and not, say, my sketch or notebooks.

here you can really see the slouch.

Anyway, it was a big project, and I finished it, so I'm proud of that. Now I'm working on the Patchwork Baby Blanket for Fal. It's my own pattern. We'll see how that goes. 

There will be a rather large hiatus in my knitting and crocheting life, unfortunately -- as I mentioned, I am in the process of moving up to Powell River right now. Between the move and the time my house up there is ready (read: built) and organized, I will not have time to knit or crochet -- and all my yarn and stuff will be in boxes. 

Le sigh. Ah, well, it will prompt me to build the bungalow and get unpacked and cleaned up as fast as possible, so I can start knitting again!
