I needed a knitting bag. I had seen a slip through bag once before, but couldn’t recall where.

I was bored one Sunday and decided to dye some yarn. I had quite a few packets of some cheap kool-aid knock off drink mix. I gave it a whirl and loved the colors it came up with. I made about five different skeins. Each of them was in a varying shade of red.

The base of the bag was done in the brightest red and I used the next lightest as I went up.

I managed to make this bag in about four or five hours. I was extremely bored at my mother’s store and just made it up as I went along.

Update: This was the bag I was looking for in the first place. Lion Brand also sells a kit for a the same Lucy bag.

Materials Used:
Lion Brand Fishermen’s Wool (dyed with red, orange, and yellow drink mixes)
