I've been trying for a few days now to cast on a new project. However my first choice just wasn't working for me. Then I was flipping through the newest issue of Creative Knitting
, and I came across this cute shopping bag pattern. It called for some cotton yarn (my favorite), and I just happen to have a large skein of Bernat's Cotton. I was also lucky enough to have a brand new (well, unused) set of size 8 dpns from Knit Picks that I won at the church auction. They came with the Kool Aid dyed yarn that I made the cabled cowl with. So far the pattern is very easy, and I love the way the bottom is looking. Eventually I'll transfer to the circular needles. I'm hoping to do that today while knitting in the car (if I don't have to drive).
