New Pretties!

I’m a sucker for a pretty bag.
It’s a Lantern Moon bag, and I’ve liked a lot of their larger bags, but just couldn’t resist this one. Perfect for toting around a sock project. I actually have two sock projects inside it right now, the first is modeling with the bag. (That’s the Sept SOTM kit from theknitter.com). The inside is made of a slickery material, an ultimate requirement in any knitting bag I use. The outside is sturdy and as you can see, stands up nicely on it’s own. It has a drawstring closure that makes it a bit hard to dig around inside the bag even when fully open, but lets you easily get your project out while leaving the ball inside the bag while you work.
It’s a bit more attractive than the unshaped totally squishable sock-knitting bags I’ve made myself in the past. The big difference being I can’t shove this one inside my purse. Ah the price we pay to be fashionable!
