Upcycling again - handbags

A month ago or so I was checking my closet and found more sweaters that I do not want to wear in hot Arizona. So, I am thinking about making something new from them now. Recycling... up-cycling...
I made another bag from my white sweater.

This bag has a cotton lining with inside pocket for keys and cell phone...

This lovely bag has 28" (70cm) handle.

You will love it because it's soft, unique, cozy, and did I mention warm?

Next, I went to my daughter's closet. Yes, kids grow fast, and Anya's  sweaters are not worn out :)
So, another bag, multicolored striped bag.
Made of 10% wool & 90% acrylic yarn. You will love it because it's soft, "roomy" , and did I mention cheerful?
This bag has black cotton lining.

The size - 14" wide x 11" high (36cm x 28cm) ) with 26" (65cm) handle.

P.S. Should I check my husband's closet?
