Quietish

As countless other knit/crochetbloggers have reported, Ravelry has proven to be quite a time-eater. I am not complaining. Ravelry is completely awesome.

However, I’ve also noticed that keeping track of my projects and finishes on there makes me a little less punctual about actually posting them here. For instance, last week I remembered my sister-in-law’s birthday was coming up a little too quickly. So I made her a bag. Then I finished it. In like, a day. I promptly posted it on Ravelry.

Sarah called me yesterday to thank me for it, and I remembered that I had a blog in which to show off such items.

Pattern:
Larger than Life Bag by Cecily Keim, Interweave Crochet - Spring 2007 (scroll down for pic)
Yarn:
Random wool leftovers. Mission Falls 1824 and some Dalegarn I think.
Comments:
I’ve been eying this pattern for awhile, but haven’t picked a yarn for it or anything. Since it was on the brain when I needed a small project, I made 2 of the squares, constructed a small purse and made a lining. Tada! I love it.

Edit. Surely you want to see the inside!

Reason #845033 I can’t wait for Ravelry to go live: I can link directly to pattern information on that site rather than dig up an obscure picture when I can’t find an official page or website.
