BAG!! finished(!!!)






finished the bag,

bought wooden handles (thought they look better than possible crocheted ones).

added a small detachable pouch inside + a keyring.

BAG!! has now more stripes

added some more stripes. the thing now does resemble a bag already, still figuring out what size will be best - nothing too small but not a huge one
