I just came across this pattern for a crocheted 'market bag'. As some of you already know, I am crocheting anything that does move away from me fast enough - I've crocheted jam jars to make tea light covers, jars to make plant pot covers, hats to cover greying hair, headbands to keep hair away from my face and the list goes on. 
I am looking at my new spinning wheel and wondering about spinning wool to make crocheted shopping bags. 
Anyone else running out of projects?
love from Virginia (over the bridge but still in Bernera)

You should absolutely get the spinning wheel out. Looking forward to seeing some spinning results 😉

I've been so busy out in the garden, making the most of the gorgeous weather, I haven't had time to even think about any crafty projects as yet. Can't wait to see the results of all your hard work though!
