A crotcheting project....a bag!

A couple of weeks ago I showed you a crotched bag that I really liked. Here it is again.

I thought I would give it a go. I haven't done much crotcheting at all, but was keen to perservere. It took me about an hour before I was comfortable with holding the hook and getting the tension right, but then it all clicked, and I am really enjoying picking it up at night and doing a few rows.

I already had quite a few balls of wool so made do with the colours that I had. Here is the progress so far.

 

I've never been a 'bright' colour type of person, but I don't mind the brights of the bag. I'll wait until it's finished to see if it is something I like enough to use! 

You can view the pattern here.

Our bathroom makeover is still at a standstill but I purchased a toothbrush holder and soap dispenser to sit onto of the new vanity.

Hubby is down in Adelaide for the Clipsal 500 motor racing, so I'm planning to get quite a bit more of the bag done this weekend!

My favourite find on Pinterest this week is these Lasagne Cupcakes.

The recipe can be found here.
