This Got Some Attention!!

I have a friend who just went into an assisted living apartment.  She has recently begun using a walker and I thought she might be able to use something for fetchin' and totin'.  This is what I came up with.
 





Please don't ask me for a pattern because I didn't use one.  I just crocheted until it looked about the right size; then measured it against a woman's walker in the waiting room at the eye doctor's office (My mother had an appointment that lasted 1 hr and 40 min.  I got a lot done in that time!);  I picked up some pretty material to line it; cut to size + some extra rectangles to add inside pockets; sewed it together; stitched the lining into the crocheted bag; added the buttons and when Grace took it to dinner it was a real hit!!!

  1. How clever Debi! Great idea, looks like a useful little "keeper". Maybe you should patent it!

  2. What a nice gift, Debi! I use a walker, and that certainly would come in handy! I can see why she enjoys it! I finally devised a pouch for my walker, and it sure is convenient! Did you make her different colors of pouches? LOL hugs, de
