The Poodle Bagz



Check out my Poodle Bagz!!! I made them both from NL6574. I got this awesome vinyl fabric off ebay. It was only like $17 for 5yds! And just look at all the little poodles all over it!!!!

The patterns are actually kinda plain but this fabric livens it up.. I lined both bags, added inside pockets and cell phone pockets... I hate bags without cell phone pockets!!!! Because if there's no cell phone pocket I spend so much time trying to find my phone in the bottom of my bag! By the time I find it, it stops ringing... very annoying!

Tunisian and Tapestry crochet on the hooks

It seems that no matter what or how many projects I have going one is always Tunisian and one is always a tapestry or fair isle type with color changes or pictures.  I love this tapestry handbag.

It’s eating a lot of yarn so Caron one pound yarn is perfect! Cause there’s a lot of it and it’s an easy care for acrylic. Handbags tend to get thrown around a lot so washable with all this white is super important when I was choosing a yarn.  I’ll be adding a liner too. And pockets .. I can not have a bag without inside pockets!  For oh so long I’ve wanted to try the double hook Tunisian technique. I have Lily Chins dvd on it but she’s way over my head at this point! This simple pattern is in Interweave crochet magazine fall 2018. Great pattern to get started with!  The Bavarian blanket is still on a hook and will be a long time because ...
