For the love of baggies!

So, I've been avoiding blogging for about a week now.  I know, I know, it shows how weak I truly am.  I can't do 12 things at once, and i'm ashamed!  I tried to do that headband thingy I mentioned in my last blog, but its too blasted complicated for me in this time of high stress.  So instead I am making little bags out of the left over skeins.  I think it would make a fab dice bag for those of us geeky sorts.  It holds a solid 2.3 sets of D20 dice.  I have 2 full sets plus a couple extras bought singly, and it holds them fine.  My husband is requesting i make a larger one for him LOL!  Man I love him.  Also had a request from a coworker for a larger one too!  I think i'm on to something!


Here are the empty photos:


The one taken right after I finished threading the chord
I wish I had a set of dice handy to show how it looks full!


So now, my new project is a sparkly bag (one with beads on it), and a hat!  Two projects at once! Who's the crazy person here? I am!  But we all knew that.


Also on the new front: I set up my store on Etsy, I just haven't listed anything, and I need some graphic design help!  I am utterly helpless at making anything neat on the computer, especially banners or the like for a page.  Anyone know a person willing to barter for hand knit items? LOL!


My husband's 31st birthday is this Friday, and I bought him a flat panel monitor for his computer.  But I was way too excited to wait for Friday to give it to him, so he got a week early.  I must say its nice to type up my blog and surf the net without a psychedelic monitor that blinks, changes color, and fritzes out every few minutes.  We were long over due for a new one, and I think I made a good choice!  Much crisper and, well, not so seizure inducing as the last one...  Off to go knit the rest of my beady bag! And maybe a little bit of the hat as well!
