should it stay or should it go?


As I knit up the bag (making a pattern as I knit) I can see that the yarn probably WILL last for a chest section and just imagine what a beautiful cardigan this would make! In this design, but with solid colour waist, arms and collar. Cardies are essential in my wardrobe, I wear them all the time... So, should the bag stay or should it go? I know I will have to line it to keep the shape even though the knitted fabric is quite sturdy and dense as it is knit up on 4 mm needles (larger needles are called for according to the tag). The extra work of lining the bag makes this a risky project. I can picture the bag in the UFO pile already...
