I hope everyone is having a good week so far

this week’s bag is a cutie.  I found it when cleaning out some stuff in my garage!

I thought at first it was a little coin purse which would be perfect for me right now…but with a mirror being inside of it, maybe it’s a tiny makeup bag? haha. who knows.  it’s just so cute and pink!!

I haven’t been knitting that much this week b/c i’ve been sick sick sick.  I did manage to get an FO though.

SOOOO…the yarn I was using last week?  yeah…i chucked it.  i was knitting on it last week and as i was going along, i just wasn’t happy w/ how it looked.  The yarn was dull, no sheen.  there was no body to the scarf/shawl.  and the color didn’t really grab me.  I think i was looking for a flaw w/ it b/c I wasn’t loving it.  So after i finished the increase section, i decided I didn’t like the yarn.  I went stash diving and found another yarn I liked better.  granted…it’s not PEACh…but it’s peach-Y? :)  i think it came out well and I love this yarn.  It’s sooo spongey!
