At Last, We Have Pictures!!!

Here are the picts from the previous posting:

The Cascade 220 wool. "Turtle" on the left (with partial hat -- which is done, but I need a model for it, tune in tomorrow); "celery" on the right (still deciding what to do with it!)

The sideways garter stitch glove before seaming.


Partially seamed.


Yesterday's project -- finishing the Brea bag I had knit ages and ages ago (it might even have been last year, BB {before blogging}) Done in, I believe, a Cascade 220 super wash, doubled, in an orange/rust color. This picture doesn't do it justice.



The lining. Let me tell you, it was a bear to do. This was my second attempt. I still have to decide on the handle (I made the one above) and the closure.
Happy knitting! I'm on to the next project...my pink socks I think.

Nice WIPs, and I love the new layout of your blog. The sage background color is very nice on the eyes.

I love the pictures of the gloves in progress. You have lots of good stuff going on there!

The sideways gloves are great! I don't know if I could handle the seaming though!

Yes, the seaming is what's preventing me from finishing them!

Lovely pictures...and lovely Ella in her new sweater. Since we are having 80 degree days here too it might be awhile before she can really enjoy it! The purse is most beautiful and the lining is wow! I am lurking around from work since my computer at home is still offline due to painting and floor refinishing. keep up the good work and give Ella a pat for Oliver and I.
