A second knitted bag in progress

I decided that my etsy shop needs more than one knitted bag in it. So here is another in progress, in a very different palette to the first. I had my doubts just after I started because I wasn't changing colours at my usual frenzied rate (as you can see from the hanging threads, post-knit finishing is alot of fun for me), but now I am coming to like it. I often have that feeling of doubt when I am about one quarter to half way through something, then as it starts to come together the feeling usually dissipates. Anyone else know that feeling?

Very pretty :)
I like the little flashes of orange

Thanks Mad Cat Lady! I'm really glad that you like it, especially the orange, as I thought that part might be a bit too daring.... :)

made me think of Katrina and the Waves song "Walking on Sunshine" - upbeat and joyous song with an overcast day and muted colours film clip to contrast.

I love this bag - the colours and the pattern. I had doubts about an ink colour after we printed 5 metres of the fabric. My assistant who had spent the day getting the colour "right" insisted that it was fine, lol.

Hi Mad Cat Lady,
That's really cool, I'm feeling quite chuffed that the bag inspired that! I wonder whether the finished version will still have that feel...

Hi Thea! Oh MY GOD that is a different level of doubt all together...you haven't made it clear what you thought at the end, but I hope that you agreed with her!!!
