Remember that when I was at the craft show a month or so ago I bought a kit to make a bag from zpagetti fabric yarn?  It’s finally done.  Ta-da!

Although I think it looks quite good, I’m actually quite disappointed with this project. I didn’t enjoy making it, as the yarn was difficult to work with and the big hook and stitches were hard on my hands. The finished bag is very heavy, even before you put anything in it. And it really does need lining, as items could stick through the gaps in the stitches.

I do like the ribbed stitches that the body of the bag was worked in, but the circle pieces at the ends took quite a few goes to get right. The pattern is not terribly precise. So overall? I think that this yarn is great for floor rugs, but on a practical level is not great for bags.  More on my Ravelry project page here.
