Yes folks, my February crochet-a-thon ended this morning with a visit to the master of my office's FedEx dimension for a celebratory box hand-off. What was in that box inquiring minds would like to know? This...
Ain't it purty?
Nothing like a crocheted bowling bag to help you get in touch with your inner-plaid-pants-donning, rented-shoe-wearing self.
It's flamerific, is it not?
Even I was proud of myself. This thing is highly constructed peeps. Lots o' parts. I inserted a zipper too...not bad eh?
It actually pained me to ship this bag off this morning. I want one! However, I don't want it bad enough to start crocheting another one anytime soon. I need a serious break. Really though, I designed and executed this um, ball-bearer, in 7 days (2 full days and 5 evenings). I think I broke my own record.
Have no fear though. There be themed bowling bags in the future coming to you from LabLinoleum. Count on that.
Happy Thursday peeps! Can't wait for the weekend when I plan to crochet or knit whatever I want. So there.
* This bag is a bowling bag style purse. In no way will it hold the weight of a bowling ball. If you're a faux bowler, this is your bag...

ReplyDeleteso lovely! and i think i would take this one with a side of bacon - you are such a wit!!!!! i could wear this with my "betty" bowling shirt! perfect!
ReplyDeleteWorking on finishing one of these right now. I love it... only suggestion I would make is that the Knitscene pattern doesn't feature a side view or diagram on how to assemble. I've had trouble figuring out which end is up so to speak....the pics on your site have been a great help.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great crochet!
do you think MAYBE this would hold a 6 pound bowling ball?
ReplyDeletedo you think this would carry a 6# bowling ball?
