My new bag!

Ever since I started knitting, I, like most knitters, have been on the search of the perfect knitting bag for when I'm out and about. Well this little pink (oooooh! so girly!!!) bag is perfect, it has 6 zippers, yes, included that huge chunky one. LOL! I've been carying around my celtic cap in one of the side pockets and still have plenty of room in the main pocket for all my other 'stuff' I carry along. At the kids skating lesson, I noticed a mom with this bag, I just HAD to get one and we asked her where she got it from. On friday with the rain beating on us we spent most of the afternoon in Chinatown and I got my new bag. I'm hoping next time we go I can find a beautiful chinese print pj for Zoe. She would look so beautiful in one and she'd just love it. Since I won't be home on her birthday I am starting to pick up a few things so that on her birthday she will get plenty of little gifts to open up even if mommy and daddy are far from home.
Looking at that picture, I can't believe how much Zoe has grown in the past few months, she is more beautiful by the minute. In just a few months she will attend kindergarden and we will live a new kind of schedule. One didacted by school schedules, we never had rigid schedules at home, kids have always gone to bed later than others but they do get up later too. It will be such a change for everyone when once the end of august rolls in.

Here's a bad picture of my 1st tatting ring. LOL! I tried last night and it was pretty simple to understand, unfortunately lack of time is making me have to wait until another night to try more tatting. It's fun though and hopefully I'll be able to show off little fishies pretty soon! :)
Only 2 more days to my week then FOUR days off!!! They will be enjoyed fully, everyone keeps on telling me how tired I look. We started our week today and I felt exhausted at the end of the day. I need rest and can't wait to have a few days off in a row. I may be anemic again 'cause I have no energy for anything. Guess it's time to try out some vitamins.
Slowly working on Zoe's sweater, on down to knitting the 1st front and then knitting the 2nd sleeve and front. Soon it will be done, then I promised her we'd go shopping for buttons. She couldn't be more excited about it! LOL!

Oh my gosh! I HAVE TO HAVE one of those bags too! Please give me details. You're not in Vancouver, are you? (That would just be too lucky.) Tell me everything, please!
Your daughter is really pretty and she makes a wonderful model. I'm glad you are enjoying your new bag. Finding and carrying the correct knitting bag is the best thing in the world. Hope you get some rest on your days off, and of course, knitting and tatting. I like to tat and find it soothing.
WOW! Can't believe how much Zoe has changed since I saw her last summer! She's sooooo beautiful! It's incredible! =)
Great bag, Jo! What a find!
Zoe really is a beauty, too. And so is your Celtic Cap! Happy Saint Patrick's Day! :)
I LOVE your bag. Is there any way to give me the info on how to get it? I have been searching the web for asian inspired satin bags with no luck.
I apreciate it very much.
By the way your daughter is gorgous!!!!
Thanks,
Eilene
I'm not sure if i left my e-mail address about that bag. I LOVE IT!!!!!
Is there a way to find that bag even if it is in a different color?
Thank you,
Eilene
