Completed: Sunflowers Satchel (Variegated Red)
I love red. (As if you didn’t know.)
And that is why I made what are possibly the only red sunflowers on the planet.

I started working on this immediately after finishing Mom’s satchel. This one is large-sized, and took approximately two more skeins of thread compared to the first bag.

Again, I used my 3.00mm hook and two strands of Cannon thread held together to ensure a sturdy FO. The darker red was Daren’s idea; she insisted it would make the variegated reds stand out more. She was right, too.

Maybe one day I’ll be able to do this in Noro Silk Garden yarn, as the designer intended, but I’m more than satisfied with the current result.
