birthday bag

it's m.'s project for her friend's birthday. she got the idea from the cover photo of 25 bags to knit by emma king. the yarn is lamb's pride in periwinkle, and . . i don't know! the grey yarn is a skein she rescued from the sale bin at the yarn company. it was a good deal. six dollars. we bought two skeins and she never even touched the second. the material is my contribution. i'll sew a lining for the bag. right now m. is cavorting at the beach, which i really should be doing also.
