Can't decide what type of handles would look best - knitted icord, leather, wood, plastic?
Any thoughts?
Lining
With the colours you have used I would go for leather, ideally black.
It's a lovely bag, looks extremely professional too- well done!Ermutigung wirkt immer besser als Verurteilung.

Bit of a lurker on here, I'm sure I have posted a long time ago
I just had to say, did you notice on Call the Midwife that they seemed to be 'knitting' crochet squares? I told my husband this, he didn't seem interested
That is a fab bag, love the lining 0 -
I noticed those knitted crochet squares, although trixie did have a purple knitted square on her needles while they were sitting guarding the phone, we never saw it sewn into the finished blanketPlease forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.0

Thanks Raksha, I was beginning to think I'd imagined it 0

Beanie finished.
This pic is a bit brighter than in real life but shows you the shape of it. More pics on ravlery.
