Dawn's Haekelbeutel

Isn't this bag just LOVELY?

It belonged to my dear friend Dawnie-Pants
(she's the one who made me the AWESOME Granny Clock)



Did you notice that I said the bag BELONGED to Dawn?

As in, it once was hers, but no longer is?

After our Crochet Meet here one day, Dawnie almost left her bag behind...

I JOKINGLY suggested that she be very careful to take it with her, because I'd had my eye on the bag for a while - and if she left it behind - then she just might not ever see it again.
I would have to claim it as my own!

Well...

Right there and then, Dawnie emptied her bag and GAVE IT TO ME!!!
(insisting that she doesn't much like it anyway)

I feel a bit cheeky about the whole thing!

The bag is so perfect.

It's big enough to hold a large project, as well as my books.

And I love the way the handles just tie together, to keep inquisitive little fingers out.

Thanks Dawn.

I definitely owe you one.

Again!
