still time to bag it

needed a new look...the black was getting to me...so new template for now.

anyway...

got this free pattern for a knit market bag from knitty...check it out. this could totally be done in a day. i'll prove it!
here are some crochet versions.
love.free.patterns.

sorry this site has been a bit neglected. july was a crazy month...but we're back in the game. and market bags are a cinch, so come on and do it...you gotta week left. (and truth is, i'm still getting t-shirt photos...so, ya know)

anyway...i may be revamping the flickr group idea...its hard to manage a group in a way that i like...so that might be changing. i'll let y'all know.
meantime...have a good summer day.
