The bag-it has handles

Earlier this week, the bag handles arrived and sat patiently for me to attach them to the bag. While D had his art lesson yesterday, I thought it was too good an opportunity to waste. So, here it is after a short delay, one crocheted bag complete with handles. I crocheted the bag using James C Brett Kool Cotton, which is a 50/50 cotton acrylic mix. This should make this fairly hard wearing. The handles are curved beech effect. To me, they seemed to fit better than the straight ones, which is just as well, as when I finally ordered them, they didn't have the straight ones this size in stock.

Apart from this, I have been stitching like mad on the Round Robin. I am now about 75% of the way through.

I am getting the whole day to stitch today. Well, if you ignore the fact I will still have to feed the boys and get washing hung out on the line to dry before the rain arrives tomorrow.

I told the children if they helped in the garden yesterday, they could stay in bed as long as they liked today and could do what they wanted, IE no extra jobs (they'll still do the washing up). It seemed a good idea yesterday, but all the pruning has left me with blisters on my hand. Fortunately, they're not on the sewing hand, so I should be able to proceed unhampered.
