I made a new bag for the summer a couple weeks ago! I still love my first birdie sling, I just wanted something light and bright. Plus, I like to have options. I was the kind of kid growing up that rearranged her room once a month. I love change. But anyways, back to the bag... :)
I fell in love with this feather print from Martha Negley the first time I saw it on Etsy. The feathers are beautiful, and I love all of the different colorways. I also bought the white/pink for a tank and the olive for a project bag! I knew this mustardy yellow would be perfect for a Birdie Sling.
I used quite a bit of my Lush woodgrain stash for the handle. This has been one of my favorite fabrics for years, so it was hard to use up such a big chunk of what I have left. I'm glad I did! I think it looks great with the feathers.
I have a new pair of socks on the needles too. This is a simple pattern called Pillar, and I am using Malabrigo sock yarn in lettuce. I am loving everything about these socks.
Phew, two blog posts this week? I'm on a roll. :)
Have a great weekend!
