Well, my version of a spree, anyway.
Most excitingly, I bought a new pair of jeans today, and discovered that I have “officially” gone done two clothing sizes since May. I thought I might need a smaller pair as the ones I have I can put on without undoing the button and I can’t bend over suddenly or I flash my undies to the world, so it’s nice to find that I am indeed a size smaller!
In knitting related shopping, I found a new sock project bag in Superdrug of all places.

It comes in white with either pink or purple stars (obviously I got the purple stars!) and cost a completely bargainous £1.99. It’s polyester/cotton with a waterproof lining which sounds like it has to be useful, though I can’t think of an immediate need for it in relation to my knitting… handy if I drop it in a river by mistake, perhaps.

It’s just the right size for any small project, not just socks, such as a shawl (if you use circs). Coordinating the yarn with the bag is probably not a requirement!
Now excuse me while I go off and prance about in my new SMALLER jeans!







Horay. Well done on the smaller jeans! I did the same the other day with my work trousers after I ran for the bus and my old ones nearly ended up around my knees. I love the new project bag…. might have to go to Superdrug on the way home!
Woohoo!!
I bought jeans last week… you don’t want to know what I found out
Love the project bag1
Hip hip hooray! Congratulations my dear. And I think everybody should at least once coordinate yarn and project bag. That might be why I have so many project bags.
Great project bag! And congrats on dropping 2 sizes. Chuck out your old jeans this instant – you’ll never need them again!
Congratulations!!!!!
Yay! Go bunny
Love the purple starts too. Though, I’d probably go for the pink in my current mood.
that is so cool! enjoy the smaller pants (and not flashing everyone)
Yay, well done
Yay for smaller sizes. Always a nice feeling!
And for the waterproof lining in the bag….I wish my project bag had that today! My water bottle leaked in my work bag. My project bag was in my work bag, and so I have 1/2 a scarf + 1 ball of yarn that are completely soaked now. So you never know when the lining could come in handy!
Well done you!!
I love the bag too!
