Erica's Knitted Bag

Tomorrow one of Erica's best friends is having a birthday party. They are hiring a bus and going down to the Gold Coast for party games-what fun! Making a present for someone is always so much nicer than just buying one, so this week has seen Erica as busy as a bee with all her planning and knitting. Erica knitted a bag all on her own! It is gorgeous. Today I helped her line it, give it a strap and decorate it! She did the most gorgeous french knots up the strap, don't you love the little rose like knots? Then she threaded a ribbon and some wool through the stitching on the reverse and it looked so good that we reversed it and made the front the back and the back the front, back to front or is it front to back! Whatever it is, take a look...
