Hi Ladies,
You gave me great sites for dishcloths and have made many of them.What do think of knitting a summer knitted bag You know the kind that has one shoulder strap.Would that be good for a beginner? where can I find a pattern for that:think:

                                                               :knitting:

Do you mean as a purse or a knitting bag? A lot of bags are very easy to knit, but many are felted. Do you have some feltable wool?

Here’s a few ideas to look through anyway…

It’s a purse.The kind that you see in the stores usually in the summertime and they are not felt.
