Crafty season continues

The ripple blanket is growing nicely, and now it's got a brand new partner: a craft bag! I really needed a bag to carry my unfinished crafts from one room to another or to the balcony or the beach... or wherever I wanna do my knittings or crochetings. And now my yarns and sticks for current projects stay neatly in one place.

I used heavy linen, that I had saved for oil painting surface, but which had stayed unused in closet for many years. The Stitch'n bitch image is from Debbie Stoller's fantastic book . I scanned it, printed on textile transfer paper and ironed it onto white cotton.

At this point, the blanket still fits in the bag...

"Revolutionizing the knitting circle". That's right sister!

Ripple blanket is 130 cm wide and appr. 90 cm long now. So it's not meant to cover the whole bed. Well, a single bed maybe..

P.S. The dark stripe looks almost black in these photos, but it's actually chocolate brown. Just a little detail, but wanted to mention it.
