Huckleberry Bag finished

Ta da!
the finished Huckleberry Knitting Styx Bag...
a close up of the front so you can see the heart button and little beads
and of course a picture of the back (reverse st st)
and now the cute lining inside... with a pocket, of course!
(yes, I did have help with the machine sewing of the lining... the hand sewing part I did on my own. So I only have myself to blame for it being just a tiny bit off center. BUT, I didn't let my OCD make me take it out and re-do it, HA! maybe I'm getting better about being such a perfectionist?!)
And now the details:
Yarn - Lion Brand Wool, colorway 1 skein Ocean Blues and 1 skein Black
Needles - bag front knitted on US size 10 1/2, back knitted on Bond Knitting Machine
Pattern - Modified Knitting Needle Knitting Bag by Pam Allen (or find it here)

Mods:
For this bag, I CO60 (instead of the required 80). I did make it shorter by 1 1/2" and did not decrease. The back was knitted on the Bond Knitting Machine and I used the purl side out. The handles were Tunisian crochet and folded in half and sewn closed. The bag was lined and decorated with a heart button and some metal beads.

I hope the birthday girl likes the bag! She will be surprised that her presents were mailed in time to get there BEFORE her birthday (unlike the usual lateness)
