I finished my Pressed Flowers Carry-All, a wonderful design by Marie from Permission to Unwind.  The project begin with a foray into dying.  I had only dyed yarn once with Kool-Aid, which was quite fun.  But for this, I selected a Denim Blue RIT dye.  My messy hanks were tossed into the kettle and brewed until I was happy with the color.

The pattern is straightforward and was the perfect companion to the many concerts I attended this past month.  I was able to whittle away at the circular knitting.  When I got to the straps, I decided to finish them on my Bond Ultimate Sweater Machine.  I used Keyplate 2 and it worked quite well!

I’m so pleased with the result.  As you can see, it will fit nicely into my blue wardrobe.  Now come on summer!
