Teal "Posy" bag

I was experimenting with little purse designs - knit hats aren't really in demand now that Spring has arrived (at least it's theoretically arrived). My daughter asked for a bag with flowers on it. Crocheted flowers.

I'm a complete moron at crochet, so I flubbed my way through some leaves and droopy flowers "Make them droooopy mom, like this..." (as she dramatically drapes herself on the couch).

The bag is knit completely on the round (circular needles) in stocking stitch, with a seam at the bottom (with tucks) and a seam on one side of the handle. I think for the next bag I will  seam it in the top/middle of the handle instead. Like the pink bobble bag. Live & learn.

I love the combination of teal and the various pinks. The bag turned out nicer than I hoped - my daughter was thrilled - and a couple other little girls have asked for Posy bags, so I guess it's a success.

A little bear - flush with cash - all ready for a trip with his favourite girl. Okay, maybe not flush with cash, it is just a dollar. And it is Canadian money. Worth about what - $0.25 US?
