Yay! Finished my Weekender Bag..

Pffew, I finished this bag just in time to take it with me to Berlin. And I'm super happy I did! It is so roomy and all my clothes for a weekend trip fit perfectly, while the two zippered pockets make it easy to find the little things, like necklaces, that I often pack. 

It does wrinkle a bit at the top part near the zipper, but there's already three layers of interfacing there! And when it is stuffed to the brim you don't see it anymore :) 

I had to handstitch the lining and let me tell you, that is definitely not my favourite thing to do.. It does show a little bit, because at certain points it is not as neat as I had hoped. But I can't be bothered to redo it again.. I might have to at some point, becuase my boyfriend had to find a cable in my bag and I heard something make a stitch-ripping-sound.. Aargh! I did inspect it later but I don't see any tears or loose stitches.

Quite happy with the lining fabrics!

Berlin was awesome! We had such a good time, ate amazing hamburgers and stumbled upon some good parties and Mexican food! What else do you need? Oh yeah off course, yarn shops! We visited Handmade Berlin, which is a yarn and coffee shop in one! How cool is that? Even the guys were quite happy to spend some time there.. I bought some beautiful cotton yarn, which I'm hoping to make into a sweater.

Can't wait to knit this sweater!

I finished a knitted dinosaur present for a super cute baby a while ago, but I just realised I hadn't shown you guys, so tadaa.. Pterodactylus!
