Coming Together
I’m making progress with my latest project, the tote bag.
Today I finished the front: cast on 80 stitches and knit in stocking stitch for 86 rows. Tomorrow, it’s time to move on to the back, again knit in stocking stitch, before knitting the gusset and handles in moss stitch.
I honestly have no idea how long it’s going to take me to get this finished. I would have liked to have done it this weekend, but as it’s taken me so long to get just the front knitted it isn’t looking hopeful!
I’ve also never knitted anything in moss stitch, so that’s going to be an adventure in itself!
What is nice, though, is that compared to my bigger project I can see this knitting up so much quicker and having the front done gives a real sense of achievement.
