I am done weaving in ends!  Thank goodness that they can look like crap on the inside (because the bag will be lined) because that took a lot of the pressure off.

I did find two crazy mistakes when I was doing the ends.  First, I caught one loop of a flower petal chain on accident.  How weird is that?  I was able to undo part of the brown connector and re-crochet it without further incident.
Second, I found that I completely missed a petal when I put in a brown connector.  Fail!  I had to cut this one out and crochet a new one in it's place.
All-in-all, the whole weaving-in thing wasn't so bad because I did it in stolen moments ... watching David Letterman, waiting for the pasta water to boil, and stuff like that.  But I guess I'd still rather have spent my time actually making something instead of cleaning something up.  Oh, well, it's all over now. :)

I frogged the half-done handles because the two skeins of yarn I used didn't match.  I thought it'd be OK, but it was really bothering me.  You can see it pretty clearly in the first picture of this post.  The little U shape under the handle is lighter than the handles.

Here's the finished bag-body in all it's woven-in glory!
I started the handles again last night, but I'm going to save that for next week's post because I woke up with the WORST headache and a face full of snot.  I'm going to employ some hot cocoa and Sudafed therapy.  

If that doesn't work, I might have to escalate my treatment to a series of retardedly-funny movies.  Let's hope it doesn't come to that.  Last time I needed that kind of medical attention it involved Balls of Fury  Ouch!  (although Christopher Walken is a comedy genius!).
