Is been awhile I update my blog, mainly because I mess up my Garthered Cardigan AND Phiaro scarf ( found out too short when finished). My progress of knitting when rock bottom, I have no mood to knit or I keep frogging the project I work on. I start looking through my stash to find inspiration and I found 3 skein of Recycle Sari Silk I brought a year ago in Spain. I know I would not in my life time wearing it if make into scarf…is way too colorful and hairy to my taste, don’t get me wrong, I do love the color but just not on my body haha…
Last week, I brought some bag frame from Meowcraft, when it arrived I know it will be perfect for the Sari Silk. The only to minimized the screaming affect is to crochet instead of knit it, I begin to test it, and I just couldn’t stop. It only took me a few day to crochet it but the lining almost drive me up the wall, maybe is my crappy mini sewing machine, the thread keep breaking for no reason (.. sewing is just not my game). However, after insert the bag frame, I am quite please with it.

Pattern : Crayon Clutch
Yarn : Recycled Sari Silk
Yardage : 1.5 skein
Hook: 3.5mm

lousy lining…is way too big

This is so cute! What a lovely way to use up all that colorful furry yarn. You did a great job with the lining too.

Wow, it’s gorgeous! And if you hadn’t included the last picture I would have thought it no bigger than a change purse!
I think you did a fine job with the lining. It’s not my favorite part and mine never looks as professional as yours does here.
