Have you made something and want to show it off? This is the place for your photos or just talk about the things that you have made or would like to make. All crafts from knitting and crochet to woodwork, in fact anything that you have made!
I make mine from cotton crochet string.
On 5mm needle cast on 40 stitches then knitt plain stitch for 40 rows or until you feel it's the size you need cast off.
I make them whilst watching T.V with my son and they are great I just put6 them in the wash as normal and they last for ages.
Great gifts as well
Yep I´m with Red, though did make me think that if you knitted with sisal string and folded over, sewing up the two sides you could make a good body mitt!

does anyone have a crochet 'recipe' for a string bag? I dont actually crochet - (but hey how hard could it be ) but I do knit.. perhaps i should make a pattern for knitting a sting bag...

I like like minded people... a bit like minded anyway.. well people with bits of their minds that are like the bits of my mind that I like...
My mum taught me how to knit dish cloths when I was a kid and they always seemed to last for ages - so now I'm on the verge of encouraging my daughter to knit them - if I can get hold of some decent string!!
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
