the Farmer's Market Bag! I think I would add another repeat of the striping pattern, as this ended up only 11 inches high. It shrunk much more lengthwise than my gauge swatch led me to expect. Not sure why. I used up the rest of my yarn (except the seafoam, of which I still have most of a skein) on pockets. I made a pouch for mushrooms and other squashables (I was really pleased with my cleverness in making a pocket that would give enough depth), and pockets for keys, wallet, and cell phone. I played with the idea of adding a divider, but decided against it. Geronimo inspected it and found it lacking in catnip or tuna, and Mirando declined to comment. Overall, I'm pleased. It will be nice and fuctional, and the straps are the exact length I want.
Other knitting: Could there be photos of Picovoli all finished tomorrow? There just might be!
Writing: Argh. Same place. I hope Chapter 4 is some sort of turning point, and future chapters will be easier to write.
Reading: Almost done with Bloodsucking Fiends.
Cooking: None, due to desperate need for grocery shopping.

That's a great looking bag. Attractive AND functional. I need to make myself one before the farmers markets start up around here.
Wow! That is so cute finished. Will you post the pattern, it looks like a fun way to learn two color knitting.
Picovoli? Done? You just started 2 days ago!!
Very nice! Love the pockets.
Nice job! Love the color and the pockets!!! cool!
Nice job on the bag. Looks great!
It looks fantastic felted and it gets the kitty seal of approval!
It's gorgeous.
What a beautiful bag! I love the striping pattern.
How does the felted fabric hold up to carrying heavy things? I keep eyeing all the lovely felted bag patterns out there but I'm worried that the fabric will give over time...
Hmm... Maybe I lied about not needing a felted bag!
Great job! I love the idea of all those pockets!
