A bunch of useless crap
Published on January 9, 2007 By MasonM In Misc
I've been looking for a knitting bag that didn't look like a woman's knitting bag. Most of them are pretty feminine looking. I finally found one that is exactly what I need. I am going to order this knitting bag as soon as I can afford to part with the extra 40 bucks.

Mason,
They have those at Michael's and a bit cheaper w/ coupons. Sometimes Jo'Ann's also has those and can be ordered w/ 40 to 50 % off coupons.

Looks pretty cool Mason...I like the color..still pretty and "manly" at the same time.

One of my best friends kept a "bag" as he called it in his pickup all the time. I used to tease him and say 'no dude! THAT'S a purse!"    Of course I don't now to many women who carry in their "bags" what he carried! A bottle of black jack, a Smith & Wesson .357 magnum, a dozen condoms, three packs of Marlboros, and six one hundred dollar bills.

Of course I may be wrong. There's probably LOTS of women who carry such things!  

(get the bag, man. I'm not disparaging your interest in one!lol....)

Now that is one manly knitting bag.

Maybe I should learn how to knit one of these days...never hurts to learn a new skill.

No comment on the manliness or lack of manliness of any of these items.

To be sure, what does it really matter what these things look like?  The important thing is functionality.  If someone gives you a hard time, just clock 'em up side the head or poke 'em with the knitting needles.

Thanks guys. I learned a long time ago to not make fun of a guy carrying a "bag" when one pulled a gun out of his. These days I'm a live and let live kinda guy.

As for the looks thing, as a guy knitter I want a bag that looks like a guy's bag and not something lady-like with flowers and crap all over it. It's not because I care what anyone else thinks, but I want something that I actually like.
