My crocheted Jamaica bag
Here's my most recent crochet project.. I call this my Jamaica bag because of the colors. I was going to make it all one color, but my friend encouraged me to spice it up, so I ended up with... my Jamaica bag.
This was a really fun short term project - pretty simple - just the kind of crochet project I'm liking these days - simple with lots of repetition.
The pattern is from Classic Elite Yarns - the Provence Summer String bag. Mine didn't turn out "exactly" like the pattern, but then again, I used three different brands of yarn, used a much larger hook, made a few mistakes and lost count somewhere along the way. But I'm still pretty happy with it!
Now I just need a trip to Jamaica to go with it. Oh wait, maybe not Jamaica with all of that meltdown happening. St. John. That's where a good friend of mine says is "THE" place to go to.

Besides! It's so much more Bohemian this way!
ReplyDeleteSo cute, but your finger nails look naked! :)
ReplyDeleteHa! You caught me with naked nails. It's a rare week when I can't bother with chippy nails and assorted manicurist's supplies. Wild and free. Naked nails!
