I’ve been working on the third (and final) pair of Foxy mitts and so far have used almost the entire skein of Cascade 220 Heather in Jet for all three pairs. 
I need a couple more yards to finish the thumbs and thought I didn’t have anymore…but I found some in an old swatch. Same dye lot, same yarn. I just need to unravel some and finish the mitts!
It’s a win-win! I’m so glad I found the swatch. I’ll show all three pair (mods, mistakes and all) soon.

The swatch partially unraveled now but a reminder to myself that I want to make that same purse again only larger than my first one. It’s amazing how much stuff I “need” to carry with me when I leave the house.
The amazing part was that I could find the swatch so quickly!

That WAS amazing! Lol there is no doubt that every purse could be a little bit bigger, no matter how big it was to start with.

I remember that swatch. A bag, right? I love it when a plan comes together!

Yes, it was the beginnings of a bag but I didn’t like all the green stripes so I started over and only added one green stripe. My first felted project.

Yes it is. BTW that yarn was also part of the purse I knit for you.
