It’s Friday and I’m bagged. Week 9: Namaste

Grab a coffee or tea and join us each Friday, to learn how these Soak worthy bags came to be. Are you bagged? Send us your favorite bag. If we feature it here, we’ll send you a Soak gift pack, in a pretty bag, of course!

I carry a book the way most knitters carry their latest project. I never go anywhere without one. And I definitely never buy a new purse without making sure a book will fit in it first.

Namaste, a friendly, women-run business that we love to see at TNNA, is often my bag of choice. In January, I spent the entire tradeshow agonizing over which new Namaste bag I should buy – the Monroe or the Hermosa.

These product shots are from the Namaste site.

They’re both big bags with great pockets for serious organization. On the final day, I picked up the Monroe because I liked that it had a zipper. It is the perfect every day bag for me because it easily holds my book and my knitting, along with all the usual belongings found in a purse.

Jacqueline’s favourite Namaste bag is her pink clutch. She uses the wide, folding case as a stylish cocktail purse. Of course, now that she’s knitting maybe she’ll actually keep her needles in it!
