it's not exactly something i knit but it's for knitting!

one of my neighbors children recently asked me to teach her how to knit, she's pre-teen i think, and i figured even though i'm new to it myself i might as well!

so i happened to come upon this pink bag big enough to carry a small project but it had a gardening graphic on it.

i painted over it and added a felt back pocket, i had more scrap felt that matched..i made a roll-up needle case, and a notions bag.

filled it up with some pink and yellow yarn , a taught myself knitting book, and some other things.

i'm really happy with it. i will probably make a few more with the other bags i bought and use them as presents.
