Slipping on the ice
Pun Intended. I am slipping a little on my clapotis. I have completed 2.5 repeats of the straight section. (Camera Still out of Batteries). I have gotton bored with the pattern, so I had to knit something else up.
This is the picture from the pattern. I am knitting this as a sample for the shop. I choose to make the part below the ruffel in Kiwi Green and the ruffle and Handles are in ruhbarb pink I love the way it is turning out. I have to knit 70 inches of I-cord (oh joy) It is a very easy pattern but I did make an adjustment to it.
I cast on 35 stitches and knit 10 rows in garter and then picked up the stitches around so that I did not have to sew the bottom up later. it made it easy and it only takes 2 balls so it is great. You can find the Free Pattern here.

I downloaded the pattern and figured that I would knit the bottom first and then pick up stitches. The other way seemed really like a lot of extra work.
I love this purse! Your color choices are great and I can't wait to see a picture of your finished bag. Thanks for the link to the pattern. I think that will be the next thing I knit after I finish my clogs.
