The final of the four Brea bags.
I doubled the yarn. See the other 3 colors in my projects for how the handles turned out.
I don’t have a finished picture for this one, just the other 3.

Started on the diagonal and added random stripes of doubled Shine + Sparkles. Did the yarns doubled for the fringe as well. Simple and easy!
Rather than using a variegated yarn, I had red and white so I made stripes for the corners.
4th color of the Wren line. Love the way it pops against brown.
began on the train to ZK. picked back up for the flight home. made it over half way on edging at the fort on the fourth. edging used backwards knitting technique.
with the lavender heather from happy knits used 2nd color for all the purl bump segments – changed color one row before purl row and then one row after the final purl row. used the tip of another raveler (oceansong) of provisionally casting on, and then knitting the turning together with the picked up stitches….
JMCO 12st 2 at a time, on longer bent circs; after increases, switched to 9” circs to zoom zoom concurrently. gauge is a bit tighter on these needles, ~10/in. increased to 38. increase mid foot and before heel to 42. knit to 7.25” before FLKH. 1-13-14-13-1 these ended up too long, gifted to Karen.
