Hi all! Here’s a quick knit I made from a chart from the New Knit Stitch Library by Leslie Stanfield. This will eventually be made into a bag! Wanted to make my first knitting community contribution since making the move to lemmy!

Woohoo, welcome!
Ah it's pretty! And that yarn is to die for. Would make a lovely bag for sure. I've been eyeing up methods for lining crochet bags to keep them from stretching out but not sure how it works with knitting since it's generally a less sturdy fabric to start off with, just another research rabbithole for when I have time (so like, never, but a girl can dream). You said it with such confidence though imma assume you're an expert and will be able to give us lots of tips on how you did it :D
p.s if you're into any other crafts too I've got a big list of 'em over here https://lemmy.world/post/418525, been trying to help our people navigate around a bit and find cool things.
Thank you! It’s Cascade 220 in color 1040. I was worried about the same thing with the fabric stretching, I’m thinking I’m going to try to lightly felt it once I have it all put together and hope that prevents too much stretch! Fingers crossed it works and doesn’t ruin the stitch definition too much!!
Might have known, I have a thing for Cascade yarns myself 😄
I'll definitely be awaiting updates on this one!
