After the cardigan, I made a few quick and easy projects, with a few twists, of course.

After my old K-Mart lunch bag gave up the ghost, I had a quick look around Ravelry and found this pattern. For a knitted, and felted lunch bag. I was nervous about felting anything, but in the end it was very easy, even with a front-loading washing machine.

I also knitted up this beanie for my nephew J’s birthday. The original pattern was quite plain so to challenge myself I did a stranded fair isle pattern that I found in one of my knitting books.

That was good practice as I will be knitting up a very big colour strand project next.
