Speaking of Halloween...

I've never been a huge fan. However, I like to get in the spirit as much as the next person. And who doesn't like the copious amounts of chocolate that this holiday invariably brings?

So I saw this free pattern today on Ravelry and thought I'd share---Dishcloth Pal folks especially, because it's part of our theme for this go-round of the swap. This link will take you directly to the PDF.

I really want to make one of these. This is the cutest trick-or-treat bag I've ever seen. I have a niece who's only 13 months old. But this would be a great, use-until-I'm-14-and-hopefully-too-embarrassed-to-be-seen-trick-or-treating bag. Probably is cheap to make too! KnitPicks Wool of the Andes is only $2 a skein. So you could use 2 strands held together and that would cost about $12 to make. Not bad! If they have the colors, that is....

That is absolutely precious!

Another thing I really like about it is that if you suck at felting (like me) it won't really matter! KnitPicks doesn't appear to have yarn in colors that would be suitable for this, though :-/. I'll check Elann.com!

LOVE it! However, I'm sure that I would never finish it in time for the little one's Halloween this year. Next year, different story...
