The crossword bag being sewn up ....
... stay tuned for more photos soon AND the pattern on my web site!Sunday addition : here the bag is all sewn up. I realised then that the tags of the nice leather handles I bought are quite big, and I don't want them stitched onto the crossword grid section. I've picked up stitches around the top of the bag, and am knitting a black border to accommodate the handles.

Oooh a new gorgeous pattern - can't wait! :D
When I saw your first post of the crossword bag way back when, I was so envious of your ingenuity. Now it is nearly done! Still envious, and if I didn't already have more than enough to be getting on with, I would love to make one too. I just have to remember to put it on my list of "some day..."s
It would make a wonderful gift for my MIL who at 87 is, I fear, fitter and more energetic than me, and a knitter, and crossword and scrabble fiend. (Fiend and friend).
this really is the most clever idea. I think it's wonderful!
This is a great bag! It looks like it was very difficult and I can't wait to hear people's reactions when you tell them that you knit it.
I think this is such a cool idea and it looks so great - can't wait to the FO!!
spectacular!
aha - this is such a clever item! anyway to get some letters (maybe pins?) to personalize? culd have a HOT retilidea here....
no good typing with one hand - meant to say could be a hot retail idea.
Your talent and creativity knows no limits. You amaze me. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.
cool bag, can't wait to see it with handles. In case I forget in the coming week, have a wonderfully happy holiday season.
I love the bag, Jejune! It is really unique. Looking forward to seeing the finished product! Hoping you are past the worst of the move-blues. I moved every year from sixth grade until I left home at 17, twice in one year, and always by "U-Haul" which means we did it all ourselves. Yuck! I'm trying to be sympathetic without getting back some of that awful feeling I used to have. Hope the holidays are fun and relaxing. ~Stacie
The bag rocks! Does it come with a list of clues?
