Look, I finished it! I am actually very pleased with how this project came out. I think the Lucy Bag is a great project, and fun for new and experienced knitter alike. It sure looked different before going through the washing machine (see how big it was compared to Beccano).

I am pleased with the results from the front loading machine. This was two passes on hot and the "extra dirty" setting. The bag was enclosed in a pillow case, and it was in there with a pair of jeans. It's drying in the picture. The only thing that wasn't perfect was that the long strap didn't come out as long as I hoped. I hope Barbara, who is to receive it, doesn't mind. She said it looked great in the picture!

I moved on to start a me project, the Austermann Inka Pullover pattern that came with my rather orange Inka Color yarn I got from Elann. It is such a lovely pattern. Too bad Elann doesn't have it any more so I can't find a picture. I'll have a picture of the lovely and easy eyelet pattern on the bottom for you tomorrow.

Still looking for work. I have another interview at the place I really liked tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
