How Many Market Bags Do You Have? a guest blog

Colleen’s colorful market bags

Joanne took the photo and asked ….

“How many market bags do you have? Colleen has well over 30! But to be fair, she does live in Canada where you have to provide your own bags when shopping…”

Are there any insulated bags in her collection?

I have at least ten. There are so many different styles. I do have knitting in some of the market bags used as project bags so I’d better up the number to fifteen. The ones in the trunk of my car number seven.

I’ve gone into the store and left the bags in the car. oops!

Meet Susan.  Most gracious yarn store hostess.  Every yarn store you visit has “a feel to it” and this is one welcoming shop.  See the label for the botanical dyed local yarn. Just beautiful. I bought some sock yarn weight with silk yarn with a label Three Fates.

Meet the founder of eqpd (say:equipped) Jonathan Baker, originally from New Hampshire, Rhode Island School of Design grad ( he even used to camp in Ossipee NH where my SIL used to live)

I bought a cool red bag.  If you look at the Twisted Knitters pic above you will see the project bags (red, white and blue) that stand open, have a place for needles, instructions and are just perfectly designed.
