\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A few years ago at Christmas time I made a ton of these box bags for gifts, and when I started up my Etsy shop<\/a> last month I added some on there as well. \u00a0Over the weekend I saw one about half the size of what I’ve been making and thought I’d test one out and see how it came out shrunk down in size.<\/p>\n

It came out wee. \u00a0This particular one measures 3″ high, 3 1\/2″ across and 5″ wide. \u00a0Right now, I have my Eyre Light shawl project<\/a> I mentioned a few weeks ago stuffed in it, and it really is too much for this little guy. \u00a0But maybe a single sock, a 50g shawl or module knitting (aka hexapuffs) might be the perfect amount of knitting for it!<\/p>\n

To really show it’s size, here’s this wee little box bag next to the partially used ball of\u00a0100g Tosh Lace I have been showing next to my project bags when photographing them for my Etsy shop, you can see just how little it is.<\/p>\n

Is it too Small? \u00a0Would knitters be interested in a wee little project bag like this? let me know what you think!<\/p>\n
