knitting needle bag in progress
Progress picture #1: Just starting out with a few rows. This piece
includes the front and back.
Progress picture #2: The body is almost completely done. Soon, the front
will be cast off and the closure flap will be continued from the back
stitches.
Progress picture #3: The knitting is all done. Now the side and the
bottom need to be seamed up and the flap trimmed with single crochet
border and a crochet chain buttonhole loop. This picture shows the flap
in seed stitch. The gauge ended up too big for the bag (the flap
wouldn't lie smooth) so I changed the flap to a 2 st, 3 row knit and
purl checkerboard pattern.
