Muppet Gestation

Muppet Bag in Progress
Muppet Bag in Progress

This is how far I got last night before going to bed.

I am loving this fun fur... Deneen: does this mean I'm not a true yarn snob? *grin*

Is that going to be a cookie moster bag? He was my favorite muppet. :)

Your bag DOES hold a strange fascination......blue...must...have...blue...fur! hehehe

Yep, I decided to go for "cookie monster blue" rather than "grover blue." (Note, those aren't the real colour names, but they should be. ;) )

Is the regular yarn crochet and the eyelash knit?

(Blogger's still asking for word verification :( )

Ack! At least the Fun fur is for a kids thing. As long as you don't wear it, you can still be a snob!

I'm using a pattern for the bag shape, but then making a bunch of changes too. I don't think sharing the pattern will be a problem... although I'll warn you that there are both knit and crochet portions... and possibly sewing too, if I decide to line it. ;)

fledchen: sorry about the word verification... I had turned it off for a bit, but the spam comments got really annoying. If you want, feel free to e-mail your comments, and I'll answer you via e-mail. (I think if you go to the "about me" page, you can click on an e-mail link there. I'll look into putting an e-mail link beside the comment link.

I'm holding the regular yarn and the eyelash yarn together and knitting them both at once. The tongue and handle will be crochet, though.

Deneen: This is my "shrone bag," which I'll be using as a project bag. So it's for me, rather than a kid. ;) (Of course, I'm a big kid at heart.)
