I keep forgetting about this group. Anyway, just finished this today. I still have a few more changes to make, but I definitely have a good design down.

One thing I hope I can pull off, will be making the lobes bigger on the bag. I may be able to get away with slipping the purl stitches every other row. That might keep the creases from expanding with the lobes…Welp, won’t know til I actually try it, heh!

    This sent me down an educational rabbit hole of what “lobes” are in the context of a pumpkin, haha, all the best projects are educational that way 😆

    Great design! Are you planning to publish the pattern or is it just a personal satisfaction type of project?

      Oh, I’m definitely going to publish it. I want to test out a couple of things (as I’m wanting it to have at least three patterns. A cup cozy, a lidded bag, and a regular bag).

      This is the first design I made, and i think it’d be a good one to add for a small simple bag.

      Also, with a few modifications it’d make a cool hat, heh. Put a stem and some leaves on it? Oh heck yeah, 😄
