I've been knitting!

This is an Eastern Market Market bag. I made it for
Paisley, my Australian birthday twin. The yarn is mostly Hope, an organic cotton, but I didn't have enough (despite what the pattern claims, and despite making it 2 inches shorter than it should have been) so the handles are in Lily Sugar n Cream (the purple bits!).

And these are Sweet Pea socks, which I know are from
Knitty, but I can't find the pattern in their archives. The yarn is Colinette Jitterbug but I can't remember the name of the colorway. They are for my friend Ana, who lives in Brussels. They're off in the mail today!

Eastern Market Market Bag

The start. This is March's Stitch DC Stash Club project. I was intrigued because while there was a pattern, there was no photo. So I decided I wanted to knit it and see what it would turn out to be!
The yarn is Hope, which is an organic cotton. It looks like twine, but it's way softer, especially when knitted up.
