So i finished a couple small projects this week but was to lazy to post about them
Well okay not lazy i just chose to do different things. So i decided to share them with you over the weekend.
First Up-another Market Bag. i really liked the first one i made and had bookmarked other patterns, cause a girl can’t have the same bag
A couple weeks ago i got some cotton yarn at my LYS just because i loved the colors and couldn’t say no. After putting the yarn up on Ravelry i checked to see what other people had made with the yarn. I always do this, it’s really interesting and gives you great ideas if you are one of those people that buys yarn with no plan. I saw the market bag and knew it would be just right.

Pattern: Fantasy Naturale Market Bag by Joanne Turcotte
Made for: Me
Needles: Size 10.5 and 15 Denise needles
Yarn: Plymouth Fantasy Naturale Solid in 8017 & 6092
My thoughts: I enjoyed the pattern. it’s very easy to memorize and a quick knit.. I noticed other ravelers made their handles thicker as well and when i got to mine i realized the extra rows were needed so i knit until i ran out of yarn-maybe 6 extra rows. It stretches out a lot. the fabric has a nice sturdy thickness and soft
Love it!
Tomorrow some hearts and cake

Great pattern, not so lacy as other market bags I’ve found so far. Maybe it’s the ultimate pattern for the green cotton I bought ages ago and couldn’t find a good project for? *^v^*
You chose such nice Summer colours for your, well done!
