I am always amazed at how quickly you complete projects! You are super fast!

I have crocheted for almost 30 years and my 1st projects were dollies. After making lots and lots of them, everything else seems easy and quick. Knitting is very uncomfortable right now. I can't seem to get a good comfortable position, but, I'm sure once I do I'll be OK. I have learned that when using the dpn's, (slippery little suckers) that if I put a damp washcloth on the table to hold the needles still, I can work it much better. I'll do anything to learn.

You might like using bamboo dpns, because they will grip the yarn a little better than aluminum ones do.

I don't think there is one crochet bag on this list that I wouldn't love to do The string market bag has been a long time favorite of mine and somewhere on the list to do if I ever get caught up on my projects. The drawstring bag is beyond adorable! I can just imagine how much fun my 7 year old would have with it, especially in those gorgeous bright colors. The little granny square bags look perfect for stashing a book and readers!

So many ideas which just means that my to-do/dream/hope list just got bigger.

But look what I found.......
Joanne's has the big balls of Handicrafter on sale right now for $8.99 for the Handicrafter Fruit Punch colors
And this is a cute bag as well......

I LOVE THAT BAG!!! I wish they would provide the pattern for it.

I like it as well. There's got to be a pattern out there somewhere. I looked at Joanne's last week and did not see it. There were a couple of other Bernat bags on their free pattern hangers, but not that one. I may have missed it, but I didn't see it in the Bernat Free Pattern library either.

C'mon Bernat.....you've got a photo out there in an advertisement for your product! Where's the pattern??!!

We may be forced to get creative here!

Yeah man! Where's our pattern?

It could possibly be a Joann's pattern, I guess.

I just looked all over the internet, but couldn't find a Bernat pattern like that.
Oh well.....it just looks like a basic keyhole bag, all single-crocheted, and seamed up the sides.
I think it would be nice if it was made in the round. It looks like it takes a LOT of yarn to make.
