Yes please. What is the best type of material to use? I don't have a stash but I know of several people I can make one for for Christmas. Thanks

Hmmm...I'll have another go. Or wait for Gervase to come in and get him to do it.

I have made the one in the frugalhaus pattern , it's a nice pattern. The bluey-grey one pictured above is based on that, but bigger and a different stitch. I used their method for making the integral handles, which are very strong.
