Step 1: Knit a long, rectangular piece of fabric.
Step 2: Edge the finished piece in crochet. (My favorite, the crab stitch.)
Step 3: Knit a small loop so the bag can hook on things, and attach.
What it looks like at this stage...
Step 4: Line it. (Really, this is optional. I didn't need to line it, but I just kind of wanted to.)
Step 5: Whip stitch up the bottom and side, leaving an opening at the top.
And there you have it, all ready to hang and hold drumsticks...
Ask me to make this at a different time, and I'd probably do something completely different. This was what I was in the mood to make right now.
What are you in the mood to do right now?
I like it
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteVery nice! Not crabby at all.
ReplyDeleteLovely black bag ;)
ReplyDeleteW is for Women
It came out really nice! I'm sure your nephew will like it! I am in the mood right now to play with grandson (but it won't happen yet).
ReplyDeletebetty
That is so clever.
ReplyDeleteWell done you've got the eye for detail.
ReplyDeleteVery cool.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the mood to create a shell box. I've gathered a bunch of wee shells from a local beach...just need a plain, wood box in order to get started!
I think I saw those boxes at Michael's. Last I heard, they were doing curbside pickup.
DeleteThat's so cool looking. I'm totally not surprised you put some orange in there somewhere. It does seem to be your most-used color.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
ReplyDeleteA drum stick holder. What a great idea! Nice job once again on your project!
ReplyDeleteIt was per nephew's request. I never would have thought of it on my own.
DeleteWow, sounds a good project.
ReplyDeleteChicken or Turkey drumsticks? That might get messy.
ReplyDeleteI bet nephew will be happy with that. Clever idea to include the hook. It looks fab, Liz.
ReplyDeleteI am in the mood to lay around and do nothing. Sadly this has become common during this month. I really think I've been using up my writing energies on this AtoZ thing. I'll have to cut back my blogging in May.
ReplyDeleteYeah, A to Z is kind of all consuming. That's one of the reasons I'm not officially doing it this year. But, of course, the PANDEMIC might have something to do with that, too ;)
DeleteThat's wonderful! So many possibilities, too, using the basic premise. Bet the recipient was delighted with his drumstick holder.
ReplyDeleteNot So Sweet Toffee
That's Purrfect
As I just mailed it today (*ahem*), I won't know for a few days yet...
DeleteThat's so nice, Liz. It's come out so well. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm in the mood to try to crochet a face mask, but the patterns I see either call for coffee filters or one side being a piece of fabric. That makes sense, but, I'm not a sewer. Maybe I'll try making one of those crocheted back of the head holders that get the elastic off your ears, instead. Or, better yet, work on one of my WIPS.
ReplyDeleteThe mask I knit, I whip stitched some fabric to the back. It doesn't have to be neat on the non-public side.
DeleteYou're an artist, Liz. No two things alike, even if they seem to look alike.
ReplyDeleteThis is great and he will love it. I am in the mood the make cards of course
