The up side to being sick is I can justify knitting, crocheting, weaving and napping all weekend. Last night I had the itch to finish something, so I took the string bag out of my handbag and worked on it until it was done.

And here’s a little photo essay of how it works:

When opening it up, I tend to turn it inside out twice, first to release the string bag bit, then again to get the ties out of the way. I’m thinking of making another one, but using a loop of elastic instead of a tie so I don’t have to flip the bag inside out twice.
