Bonnie's Purse 2.0, Driver's Test



I had to go to the DPS today to get a replacement license and take a motorcycle driver's test for my moped endorsement. I decided to take Bonnie's purse along with me, just to test it out. I had my regular purse and used hers to take yarn and some sticks to play with during the wait. And I was wearing my "Not Devil Hat Anymore."
I actually like Bonnie's Purse and am going to make a new one for me with some changes and improvements. Dare I call it my first design?? I failed my motorcycle test, and I don't want to talk about it. I'm still wearing my "Not a Devil Hat Anymore." I was supposed to see Bonnie today to give her the purse and show her that I am a knitting superstar now, but her husband conveniently had his appendix removed today. Nico is out of town tonight. :( He's in NJ, but he'll be back tomorrow. (I miss you baby and I love you.) Long story short: I'm making myself a fly new purse. If it's as awesome as I think it will be, I will post the pattern.

Hello again,

I would love it if you wanted to join on our mailing list. Unfortunately, the only way to do that is by getting a Yahoo account. It is free. If you are a new knitter you may want to join my charity group because twice a month I will be posting a few lines of a pattern daily for about 5-7 days until you have completed an afghan square. The purpose of this is two-fold. 1) So that you might learn a new stitch; and 2) that you can either save your squares to eventually put together in an afghan, OR you could donate the afghan, or just the square to charity if your hometown or to us. My Houston Knit Chicks group is a social group but we have ladies from all over the United States in it. I am hoping to start a Mystery Skein Exchange or a secret buddy exchange in it at some point.

Regardless, I will be happy to help you with any knitting questions you have. I was like you two years ago. I just couldn't learn fast enough. Here is my e-mail if you have any questions: kgclements@earthlink.net
