Dear Mr. Etherknitter,

In the spirit of healing‚ and good vibes‚ . . .

This Budvisor’s for you!

Seriously, once we’re done with it in a couple of weeks, it’s all yours. Much like some people believe in Pyramid Power, I believe in Beer Can Power. You pop this on your noggin and you’ll have bones growing out of places you never thought they could! So for the love of all that is boney, Mr. E, concentrate. Think about your leg while you’re wearing it and all will be well.

May the power of beer cans compel you.

May the power of beer cans compel you.

May the power of beer cans compel you.

May the power of beer cans compel you.

Patterns for the Budvisor‚ and San Pellegrino tote bag‚ are now available in the Tin Can Alley gallery! W00t! I tweaked the Budvisor (I just can’t stop saying that name) a bit, and came up with a pretty good solution‚ for the adjustable closure in the back. The beer can’s very own tab!‚ I haven’t tested it very strenuously, so it may need some reinforcement, or you may have to tear it off altogether and put a button (or a bottle cap) on there instead.

‚ 

And a side note on the handles for the tote bag. I used thin bamboo ones from the craft store‚ and they were holding up ok until someone (*cough*myhusband*cough*) kneeled on them. They snapped like twigs, which is essentially what they are. I was a little concerned with their sturdiness to begin with, so just keep it in mind. If you’re tough on your bags or have a husband, you may want to go for plastic. I think clear acrylic ones would look really cool.

Enjoy!!
