the blue blog archives: the best things in life are blue

Blue KidSilk Haze from my just renewed Rowan subscription, blue bucks back from Old Navy, and the prettiest blue crocheted bag from fellow sockapalooozer and super crafy girl, bySarah. Look at the beautiful blue beads!

I don't think I've ever owned anything with beads before. I certainly don't have the patience to work with them, but wow, what an amazing effect. Speaking of patience, look at all the ends Sarah wove in on that little bag. Thanks so much Sarah - I love love love it!

that bag is SO cute - even if it's blue ;-)

That bag is WONDERFUL! And having worked with beads once before - I can tell you how tedious they are - maybe even more so than the ends. ;-) Enjoy!

I agree! Blue is wonderful - especially for *the blue blog* :)

That is FAB!

It probably took longer to weave all the ends in place than it did to make the bag! It's very sweet!

Very pretty!

You know, that bag is very cute. I don't think many things knitted with beads rise to that category, but this one does.

Bet you'll love the Froth Scarf. With the UK subscription, we got that membership gift last year and I knit it up for my daughter. Just received this year's membership gift and it is a cute little bag. Way too many projects on the go at once right now, so it will be something to look forward to. What a beautiful bag Sarah made you!
