I am not sure it would be as good for knitting as crochet.

The bag does look nice but I have not worked with Tshirt yarn. I almost bought some recently but put it back for some reason. It does look like it would be hard to work with and maybe that is why I didn't buy it.

Also, I love to crochet with tiny hooks and threads, old style. ;-) Too bad the yarn was damaged because the bags turned out prettily. Sometimes bargains and cheap prices are a bad sign, though luckily your other cones were fine. Now you just made me want to fly to Istanbul and visit that market!Alhanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02544336735869368358noreply@blogger.com
