Cabled Bag

Well the first thing I should post on here is the first bag I made.

(click the picture for a link to the pattern)

The main body of the bag is exactly the same as the pattern but I'm not fond of knitted straps on bags, so I modified an old belt and used that for handles. The lining was kindly donated by my gran (and I have loads of it left! she sends me parcels of really random crafting supplies every so often- the latest included amazing vintage patterns, buttons, a tablecloth and some wool!)

Anyway, there it is. My first bag
