FO: Noro Sophie Bag

I really like the colorway. Very nice bag.

That is a really nice bag. Well done you!
I love Noro wool. I’m making a jumper in Kureyon at the moment. The wool I have has lots of purple shades in it going through to yellow and bright treen! Looks really good. I’ve done the back and front but have the sleeves to do. Kind of got distracted by other things! lol
I haven’t made any felted bags yet but I have several Noni patterns and [B]really[/B] wanna make one!!! Just need the money to get the wool to do it.

Wow! I agree with everyone else - the bag is gorgeous! The colors are so beautiful, and that button really adds something special to it.

I’m curious how you did the strap. Are those the strap ‘tails’ hanging under the button? Did you sew the button on top of the strap to hold the tails in place?

that’s really nice, I love the colors and the button, it’s just perfect.

Right, those are the strap tails, and the button is sewn on top of the tails. Here’s a different view:

Nice bag and I like the something sage sweater you made, too. You have a very lucky daughter in law! :yay:

Thanks. I actually have 3 daughters-in-law, and two of them have birthdays this month. I really enjoy knitting for them, and they seem to appreciate the things I make for them. I have no daughters of my own, so I really enjoy my dil’s.

Hi! I’m relatively new to the knitting world. I LOVE this bag. I have made one similar and loved it, but I’d love to make this one. Where’d you get the pattern? Yarn?

Beautiful!:thumbsup:

Beautiful and the button is lovely!

Here’s a link to the pattern: http://www.blacksheepbags.com/sophie_bag.html
Unfortunately, it’s no longer a free download, but I don’t think it’s too expensive.
And here’s where I got the yarn:

It’s colorway #183.

Have fun!

Fab. :thumbsup: Love a roomy bag.

This is a beautiful bag, Slim. I love the way you’ve handled the strap, and the button is perfect.:thumbsup:

That’s really cute. The button was the perfect choice. I think the thing that stops me from making more knit purses is my inability to sew a lining. Or to sew anything, for that matter.

Great job on the bag. I love the colors. :heart:

This is beautiful…the colour, shape and button! I must have one!!! lol
You have an eye for detail! Great Job!!!
