Buttonhole Bag
This will be gifted to my student teaching supervisor today. It was made with 3.5 skeins of Reynolds Lopi. I have a love/hate relationship with Lopi. It tears my hands up, but I love how freaking fuzzy it gets! Perfect for Fuzzy Feet. I did give this a haircut, though, to make it slightly less...less. The unpattern is available from Mason-Dixon Knitting.
Before
After amazing hot-water and laundry soap diet:
It lost 20% in just an hour!
I decided on a frog closure for this, which I was happy with up until the point I was ripping back where I had sewed on the non-knot size and IT ripped. Then i had to form it into a plain loop, knot it, cut a hole in the bag, and secure the ends inside the bag while letting the knot come partially out of the hole. It seems pretty secure, I hope it is. I guess I should have taken a picture of the back, but I am just not that thorough. Notice there are still no sock photos!
...Perhaps I'm not even knitting socks. Perhaps it's all a big lie to throw you off the scent.
