The yarn was 3 sets of 2 skeins each of Plymouth's Fantasy Naturale. I wanted to make myself a second bag and I have 2 friends with upcoming birthdays that would like a bag.
I have made 2 bags from Fantasy Naturale, one for me and one for a friend, with 2 different patterns. I liked both bags, but neither one had the handles I wanted.
So this bag is a third pattern. However, I bought the yarn before I read the bulk of the pattern, so I am short a lot of yarn. I am single stranding the base instead of double-stranding. I will probably make the bag shorter than called for, but I think I really like the handle design. (Pic: Base is done and I am picking up around the edges.)
We'll see how it goes!
