Real use for those Trader Joe’s bags

I saw these bags at the checkout a couple times and did little more than think about getting one. They’re popping up everywhere, these reusable grocery bags. Makes the environmentalist inside of me (Thanks, Dad, for that!) stand up and cheer. I finally got one yesterday, this special one designed to hold six wine bottles. I have no reason to buy any more wine – don’t ask how many bottles we have – and doubt there’s an occasion where I’ll need to carry around said wine. But…my knitter’s intuition kicked in. Perfect knitting bag! Six compartments for WIPs, yarn, patterns, notions, etc. And only a buck! I’m telling the world and buying one for every knitting friend.
