TRIANGLE THAT GREW...

Got lots done today and even found time to make a new bag with a loopy flower
EDIT: bag measurements
The strap is 14" long x 3.5" wide
The base triangle is bout 9.5"
The flat bag is 13.5" wide and the sides are 10" long
I did the triangle in about an hour the night before
Then when Loose Women started on TV at 12.30 l started the sides, strap and made the flower which is 4" in diameter and finished at about 9ish last night
Used double strand DK and a 6mm hook

  1. Bag and flower look fantastic. Did you really make them in one day? How big are they? Loving the colours you used.

  4. Oh my gosh I love this to. Any pattern hints you can give? I want to make the wristwarmers and socks but am having a problem witht the pattern. I have never done a ripple before for one thing and are the stitches diff for me in the US? I would use worsted weight not sure what size needle and I also have big freet like a 9 1/2. Lots of questions I know but I just love your stuff, you are my new inspiration.... thanks for any help!
