I keep forgetting about this group. Anyway, just finished this today. I still have a few more changes to make, but I definitely have a good design down.
One thing I hope I can pull off, will be making the lobes bigger on the bag. I may be able to get away with slipping the purl stitches every other row. That might keep the creases from expanding with the lobes...Welp, won't know til I actually try it, heh!
Are you planning to publish the pattern or is it just a personal satisfaction type of project?
Oh, I'm definitely going to publish it. I want to test out a couple of things (as I'm wanting it to have at least three patterns. A cup cozy, a lidded bag, and a regular bag).
This is the first design I made, and i think it'd be a good one to add for a small simple bag.
Also, with a few modifications it'd make a cool hat, heh. Put a stem and some leaves on it? Oh heck yeah, 😄
