How Cool is This?

My Hostess for SP10 is Robyn. Robyn is already offering a second contest....two contests and it's only been 6 days since the start of Secret Pal 10. Now that's pretty cool! You go Robyn.

So here's the deal:
She wants us to blog about (and show a picture of) our favorite knitting accessory. Here is mine:




It's my Constant Companion knitting bag from the book Knitter's Stash.
I knit it for myself from Cascade 220 worsted wt wool.
I love love love this bag.....I loved knitting it... I loved the way it came out of the washer after felting with perfect corners...I loved the way my first attempt at chart work (the pattern on the pocket) turned out. I love the way the handles can be short and doubled or long and single. But mostly I love this about it:

It does a lovely job of containing all my other favorite knitting projects and accessories. (It doesn't look bad sitting next to my couch....and looks very nice against my carpet!)

ps...Rachel, if you're reading this, look closely into the bag....I really do use the needle rolls and the small project bags you sent me. love them too!

ps...I finished the sock!!!

weird striping huh? I think it's because of the rib pattern, I'm thinking I'll decrease the cast on to 60 in place of 64, on my next pair, which should fit fine and might make the striping a little bit more like the foot/toe area. maybe.
