Immediate Cast On

I was so excited when I saw this sock set in my mailbox! I immediately cast on a pair of shorties and I love how the tonal is working up. The yarn is so squishy and, since I've bought from this dyer before, I know the yarn will hold up nicely!

Beautiful sock set

I am a bit of a pushover for all things Little Women related. I am very happy with this set. :blush:

The Handmaker's Bag

LET'S GET COZY AND MAKE SOMETHING!

Hello and welcome friends!

Thank you so much for dropping by my little corner of the internet. Come on in, take your shoes off, pour yourself a cup of tea and let's get cozy.

Hi, I'm Katherine and I'm the maker here at The Handmaker's Bag. I live in beautiful Washington state with my husband and 2 pugs. I've had a passion for making my whole life.  I began sewing more than 25 years ago. Inspired by a need to organize my knitting projects and my love of sewing, I began making project bags. At first for myself and then for friends. I soon realized how much I enjoyed designing and making the bags and in 2016 I started The Handmaker's Bag. It's grown since than and I've added much more than just bags but it's the bags that are still at the heart of my business today.

Your love and enthusiasm for my bags, yarn and products inspires me and I have to pinch myself everyday because of how lucky I am to be doing something I love. I hope these handcrafted items bring as much joy to you when you use them as they did me when I was making them.

Now, let's make something.
