A certain little person in our house fell in love with another little person's knitted bag, seen here. So, I made him his own. Same general idea, though this time I did it by memory during park outings and lessons. The proportions are a bit off, causing its wonkiness. But I'm inclined to call it its homemade charm. It was also my first go at working Fair Isle--again, wonkiness ensued. But how fun; winter hats, here I come! I used a tutorial on two handed knitting found here. And I must say it was not very difficult. But I think I had a head start because I originally learned to knit in the Continental style.
As soon as I gave it to him, he was off...
...packing it full for his many adventures...
And what tiny treasures does he currently like to keep close? Some Little People of his own and his beloved Cars characters (we're working towards a full set).
In other exciting-to-me knitting news, Shalom is done! Just waiting for some buttons and then I'll share. It was a super quick knit (i.e. roughly 10 days of knitting at night). I highly recommend it for any other newbie knitters out there.
Happy Friday!
