A woman can never have too many bags, right?
Marie, from Permission to Unwind has designed the cutest tote bag and has made it available for free. It calls for one cone of Lily Sugar & Cream kitchen cotton and a box of Rit Dye. Yep – Dye! I have only dyed yarn with Kool-Aid, which is quite fun. But I think I may try blue for this bag. (Can you tell I got the blues lately?) Or maybe “miss pink” would like a variation on that color….so many options.
I can’t wait to start! Thanks Marie!

I am so excited about this too! No idea when in my life I’ll be a strong enough knitter to try it – but I’ excited all the same!
I visited Marie’s blog for the first time yesterday and saw that bag– wow!! It’s so pretty, and she is so generous to offer the pattern for free. I was surpised (and happy) to discover it’s made with cotton.
I’m so happy you love the bag, Jane, and thank you for the shout-out! 🙂 I can’t wait to see your blue bag! (Just be careful… if you use Navy Blue it will probably turn out violet like my first attempt 😉
