Those bags ... last time!

From Pick Up Sticks, Verticle Stripe bags :





Yarn : Cascade 220, 4 in the green, one in the pink
Notes : made bigger than the instructions ... 5 stitches longer & 6 stitches wider per panel



Yarn : KnitPick's Wool of the Andes (blue x5) & Cascade 220 (pink x1)



Yarn : KnitPick's Wool of the Andes, x5 in dark grey, x2 in red



Yarn : KnitPick's Wool of the Andes, x7 in ?
Note : The twisted tie looks like it's in a different color only because it was felted on its own and was not contaminated by the other dyes!

I love this bag mostly because it stands up on its own. Just think about it :

- the Booga bag is knitted with a single stand of worsted weight yarn on US10 1/2 or 6.5 mm needles

- the Panes bag is knitted with a double strand of worsted weight yarn on US13 or 9.00mm needles

Only thing that comes close is the Nantasket basket which is knitted with a double strand of worsted weight yarn on US10 1/2 or 6.5 mm needles

The Vertical Stripe bag is knitted with double strands of a worsted weight yarn on US10 or 6.00mm needles. Wool of the Andes makes a thicker fabric than Cascade 220.
