The Rest of the Story!

I used the little ball of yarn left for my market bag 

and knit one long seed stitch handle until all of the yarn was gone. 

Because knitting requires less yardage, I was able to make straps long enough this time.

I also stretched the one long strap vigorously to made sure it was long enough when folded in half 

and then snipped the yarn there to make them two handles!  

I then sewed them to the inside of the top of the bag.

This project has begun again-I had to rip out the previous attempt at a summer t-shirt

because the pattern called for DK and I have Worsted yarn.

I could make the numbers work for the stitches but not the rows and so I quit knitting.

Now I have the perfect pattern and the other attempt was ripped out and is now on track!

I think it will be a very comfortable sweater.

And see how pretty the shawl looks!

It is always amazing to see how blocking changes the wad of knitting into the airiness 

and drape of a shawl!

This was a grey Shetland wool that I crockpot dyed a deep green.

Now to wear it around the house because I won't be going out anywhere else! lol
