GIVEAWAY || OTTERBURN PQ

Feb 27, 2015

I'm super excited about today's giveaway - one lucky reader will win this Otterburn PQ small knitting bag! I've got three of these bag (two small ones like the photo, and one large bag) and I use them for my current hats in progress.

The small one is the perfect size for one skein of yarn, which is all I need for my hat projects. I toss my current hat in progress into the bag yarn-first, and then I can knit along on my hat while we play trains, head out to grandma's house (when I'm not driving), and just about anywhere else! The bags keep my yarn on-hand while also keeping it out of the way, so I don't have to worry about the yarn being dragged around the house for spider web making (true story).

Thanks to Jesabelle, one lucky reader can win a small striped Otterburn PQ bag of their very own! Simply comment to this post, sharing what project might find its way into your bag first, and I'll pick a winner next Friday!

    I'm planning to start knitting socks, and that would be perfect to hold the yarn in.

    Wow. Cool, the next small project that would fit... Hmm, not small, I'm working on a lacy shawl that need a more permanent place to stay. Right now it is moving from bag to bag or purse to purse.

    Cute! This would be perfect to knit hats in while waiting for classes to start instead of smooshing my yarn and needles into my backpack!

    2nd attempt at comment - chose your 'comment as' before typing.
    I only recently saw these bags for the 1st time - what a wonderful (beautiful, simple, practical, whimsical) idea. When I have one, someday, I will tuck a skein of balled sock yarn in there with my socks in progress on dp ready to roll - while I wait in line and the grocery store, sit and listen to discussion in class, walk around campus, layover at the airport; in other words knit all over the world.

    I have been drooling over these bags since you first posted about them. I am always on the move so these bags will come in very handy. My first project to go in would be a hat for a friend, and then a pair of booties for a new baby. And from there...who knows!

    This bag is awesome! I am a new knitter (Been crocheting for a few years), and have been thinking about doing charity hats and blankets. So I'd say my first project for this bag would be a baby hat to donate!

    What a cute bag! I knit hats for preemies, cancer patients, the homeless men, women and children at the Mission, and for pre-school kids of single moms who are trying to get an education. This bag would be perfect to corral the current WIP!

    The bag reminds me of the pictures you see of shepherdesses knitting as they walk behind the sheep. This would make a great bag to carry at all times to knit while you wait. Walk and knit, too. I would tuck in a sock or a hat.

    What a great idea! I could go for walks around the lake, knitting as I go! I'm knitting up a storm of hats for charity (you've massively inspired me Robyn) :) I've sent my first batch of 10 hats to Syria and plan on doing a lot more of the same :) Katie. X

    Just read about the hats going to Syria .........I have been making hats since the first of the year and now I know what to do with them.....they are all sizes and mostly made of wool....everyone should have the right to be warm ......we can make the world a warmer place....one stitch at a time....

    what a great bag invention! it looks perfect for just about anything. i would use it to work on my hats for "Yarrn." I wish I was more disciplined like, Aunt Marti up there. I don't think I could walk and knit at the same time. You're my hero!

    I'm excited just looking at how other people would use it! Right now, I am into the fingerless mitts. But I have been watching your emails and am psyching myself up to make hats. I have only made one, but all of the information you share along with your patterns give me the courage to try more. Thank you!

    Either the Audrey hat that I've started, or the second leg warmer for my daughter (getting the second sock syndrome with the leg warmer). Thanks for the chance!

    I always have 1 hat on the go for one of the local shelters where I live. I spend a lot of time out and about while my daughter takes dance classes or a once a week circus class. At the moment I am knitting a simple slouchy hat. That project would fit well in one of those project bags:)
