Notes

Re testing this tote pattern for the little golden nook as errors were found in the final pattern.

Started with a yellow cotton base but decided it was too bright, also had to frog project to restart with another testers (Liz’s) notes, as we were both doing different things and thought it would be easier to work from her notes instead.

Restarted with Liz’s notes, and restarted with a coral coloured Soya yarn for the base instead of the yellow.

Ordered some faux leather handles from eBay in the Camel/yellow colour, hoping they fit well with my tote! They’ll take about a month to get here, that’s why there’s none in my photos blush

My handles have been added and I think they look great! I bloody love this tote and use it all the time! It’s super roomy as well, but the more things you add the more weight it gains cause stretching, I think i might line the inside of my tote so it’s more sturdy! heart_eyes
