What can I tell you about this pattern?

I designed it for the annual Giftravaganza Blog Hop Cal held by Underground Crafter and the rules were for a quick project, newly never-seen design, and a winter holiday gift for women.

So, what else than a bag for women?

And if it is made with chunky yarn and works really quickly, it is definitely a bonus right?

This pattern uses a very chunky yarn, so very winter, and I chose the Ocean color theme but you can choose yours!
