I received my prize tote bag the other day from Lisa at http://thetinhouse.blogspot.com/ for contest info - see previous post re contest. What a lovely surprise, since I had forgotten about receiving the tote bag, and Lisa's handwriting on the envelope looks like another Aussie gf's writing. Well I'm extremely happy with the bag - Thanks a million Lisa, very impressed with it! - tempted me to use an ol' pair of J's jeans to make a tote.
I'm now using it to hold my knitting - my latest knitting project.The jean pockets are great to store my tools - tape measure, crochet hooks (to fix dropped stitches - still trying to master that technique sometimes I just undo rows instead!), pieces of wool, labels from the wool, stitch holders etc.
Thanks again Lisa for the lovely tote, I'm enjoying using it and the bonus extras are gone!!

Collette - that's brilliant! I love the idea of a knitting bag - it's perfect. Now....I'll just have to wait for another pair of jeans to die before I can make one for me! Lisa x
