Subject: [BOND] August Pattern - Wall hanging Recyle Bag

Materials:

        2 - 100 gram skeins of worsted weight wool.
        Keyplate # 3
        Tension as per skein of worsted weight wool.

        Using waste yarn cast on 60 stitiches.
        Knit with waste yarn for 6 rows.
        Change to main colour and knit for 10 rows.
        Move every second needle to adjacent needle - lace hole row.
        Make sure all of the latches are open so that you have 60 needles in
working position before you go across the above row.
        Knit for 10 rows.
        Rehang first row onto needle frame - you will have two stitches on
each needle.
        Picot hem now being formed.
        Knit for 4 rows.
        Move every second needle as above - beading hole.
        Make sure all latches are open and knit across - 60 needles in
working position.
        Knit until desired length or another 100 rows.
        Move every second needle to adjacent needle - beading hole
        Make sure all latches are open and knit across - 60 needles in
working position.
        Knit 4 rows.
        Move every second needle to adjacent needle - lace hole.
        Make sure all latches are open and knit across - 60 needles in
working position.
        Knit 10 rows.
        Cast off loosey.
        Stich down last row to original row ten rows down to form picot edge.

        Make a tasselled cord or using the magic cord machine and fine
cotton, make a cord to insert through the top and the bottom.

        Sew up side seams on the machine or by hand.

        Insert cord through top loosley and tie a bow.
        Insert cord through bottom loosely and tie a bow.
        Hang in a familiar spot and push the leftover plastic bags in
through the top, and pull out through the bottom when needed.

        This also makes a wonderful hoisery holder for the back of a door -
as well as a socks holder in the childrens room - you put the clean ones in
through the top, or let them slam dunk them, and they pull the clean ones
out through the bottom.  No more missing socks.
