I generally would not put a ribbon because it would turn into a non-everyday bag (at least for me), but if it's a gift, I think a ribbon would be a really fun and pretty touch.Narwhal Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158346334186873840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8537943107691885690.post-56443036940814111922011-01-22T05:47:17.220-08:002011-01-22T05:47:17.220-08:00The bag looks great without the ribbon, but a cons...The bag looks great without the ribbon, but a constrasting color ribbon would make it pop.Delusional Knitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04468359827353813983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8537943107691885690.post-17642477103626089462011-01-22T05:36:41.861-08:002011-01-22T05:36:41.861-08:00That bag is really cute!

The good thing is, if I do go with the ribbon, she can always remove it if she doesn't like it.<br /><br />Paula, thank you! You know, I don't know if it's turning out right, but it's not as hard as I thought. I'm getting close to the point of having to use two circulars. Not really looking forward to that part.

Don't sweat the hat decreases, they're a breeze. Just don't try to count (or watch tv) and decrease at the same time. :) Ask me how I know...Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00754250792673037859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8537943107691885690.post-63081591035674148812011-01-21T16:59:24.038-08:002011-01-21T16:59:24.038-08:00The purse is just awesome!

I'm going to see if I can find the perfect ribbon for it tomorrow.<br /><br />Word Lily, thanks! It's not scary at all, as long as you hand sew it!<br /><br />Marushka, thanks! This lining is just sewn to the top as well, and the rest just hangs loosely inside the bag. I haven't tried to sew a lining any other way! :)<br /><br />Shannon, thank you! I know, I made the crochet part in a few nights which is incredible! Very exciting about your knitting space. Take pics as well.

We are organizing/spring cleaning too, and I hope to improve my knitting work space at the end of it so I'm looking forward to seeing your studio space.Affiknittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12226218056066734188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8537943107691885690.post-75444057847045016202011-01-21T12:12:17.145-08:002011-01-21T12:12:17.145-08:00It's beautiful, Tami!

I usually handstitch mine around the top only so that I can remove the lining and wash it separately from the rest of the bag if I ever want to.Marushka C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15501083029600186860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8537943107691885690.post-31132494403421013632011-01-21T09:13:59.443-08:002011-01-21T09:13:59.443-08:00From start to finish, yay!

I won't force it, but if a ribbon is perfect, I think I'll get it. :) Thank you.<br /><br />autumngeisha, thanks! Good to hear you like the handles, I was kind of unsure about them. That's a good idea. Maybe next time I'll take a picture of how I do it. I don't think I do anything too special, but who knows. I kind of made it up as I went along the first time and have done it that way since.<br /><br />Michelle, thanks! I'm really happy with it! Definitely my best one yet. I guess after doing the same pattern three times, you'd think it would have to get better.
