I have a weird fixation. Seems that I I have a fondness for insulated coffee mugs (I have 7 different ones), water bottles (6) and now, pretty things to carry my kinitting around in. Of course, having a pretty bag or basket sure helps you knit faster.
My newest knitting conveyance:
A Cape Cod basket, with hand made lining, a draw string closure. I bought the basket at The Christmas Tree Shop in Portland, Me for $2.99
I love the weave!
Then I made the lining. I only wish I had a pretty fabric in the house. The navy blue is blah. But I designed the lining to be pulled around the outside of the basket while the contents are being used.
I need to work on the contents some more, the Never-To-Be-Finished-Tina Shawl. It will be stunning when done, but I don't think I will ever get to the end of the border! But I've got other things competing for my attention (the tiny little person standing on the porch is my dearest little Ryan):
