Here's my first attempt at a bag! It was also my first project with circular needles which I really did enjoy using. AND my first Icord! Lots of firsts with this project.Ok now for the funny part. The handles are crooked. They're not centered properly because...umm...actually just because I was too anxious to have it done really. But because of my darling husband's superior photography talents, it looks pretty good.
For my next project, I'd like to use double pointed needles but I'm a little intimidated. It looks like there's an awful lot going on with them. I'm a little scared so I'm looking for a hat that uses circulars and dpns on the decrease. I'm feeling very confident with my stitches now so I'm ready to learn more with each project.
Ok I'm off to peruse all the lovely knitting sites to find a new project. Hope it doesn't need handles.

I am not laughing, because it really is so darn cute!!
Congrats! Looks fantastic!
A fantastic good try to make a bag! It looks very good, seems you have the talent on doing this!
I love it! Crooked handles or not!
I've always thought that knitting would be a great thing to do on the plane to pass the time away. Too bad the needles won't make it through security. I visited Manhattan for the first time this month. I loved it!
I think it looks great!
My handles came out crooked too on my first try. Nobody ever notices unless I point it out.
Have fun knitting a 2nd and a 3rd purse!
I think it looks quite good, especially for a first try. Keep at it. One rule in knitting is: things don't always turn out like they are in your head or in the pattern. Surprises are good.
