Finally! The Bag is complete! And to my embarrassment almost a year long project. Not entirely because of an unskilled knitter but things like ruining out of yarn, uneven strap-holes, and felting mishaps. This bag was knitted for my Great Aunt Sallie Ann, and she paid me which is why it's embarrassing that it took me 10 months to complete, photograph and ship. It turned out longer than I expected so it has been daubed the "blue banana bag" I promised my self I would never again alter patterns (this is how the bag came into existence) but that was a big flop on an idea, I still tinker with patterns. The body of the bag was knitted with Lamb's Pride, and the lighter blue straps and edging were knitted with some unknown brand, well not unknown, just failure to remember. But really I rather pleased with it.
