Jarbo Garn AB - Summerbag CAL

Järbo Garn launched a CAL ( Crochet-along) that was starting the 2nd of July, called Sommarväskan (The Summer bag). they hade pre-picked 5 colour combinations that can be found on their blog or pick your own. The yarn was Järbo Garn "Soft Cotton".  I picked the pre-colours Oceaner (Oceans) but the order was so delayed, so after 3 weeks I canceled it and ordered from another place and also changed the colour-set to Lavendel (Lavender) after starting to see how the bags look in the  Facebook group for this event, and I thought it was to much green and less blue (blue being my favourite colour).

The pattern was very interesting and easy to follow but the start and ends of the rows turned very ugly, so I decided to cover it up (I have an idea what to do). So I now decided that I will make another bag in the colour set Oceaner (Oceans) and work that start/end part better and make it nice and tidy.

So here is my Lavendel/Lavender Sommarväska / Summer Bag

After this one was done I decided to make an inside pocket for bits and bobs.
