We call them clothes pins down south.

We call them clothes pins in Manitoba too (smile) I have heard of them as
"pegs" too.

Can anyone tell me if there is any kind of knitting pattern that you can do
for making a clothpin bag. I am a new knitter and would like to find
something that is simple and fast. Has anyone heard of such a pattern
before? If so can they share it with me?
If no one has one, does anyone know where I can go to get one?

Mirjam,

Hello twin.

I believe Diana means a clothes pin bag. For holding clothes pins that
hold clothes on a line.

If I am right any knit bag would work.

You got it dear friend.

They were also called clothespegs in the North of
England where I grew up. They also were not the kind with two separate
pieces and a spring to hold them together, rather a single piece of
carved wood with a knob on top and two "legs". It was easy to draw a
tiny face on the knob, wrap a scrap of cloth around them, and have a
clothespeg dolly.

That is not the kind we use. Ours have two pieces of wood and a spring. The
other ones we buy in craft stores, just for that purpose.

Yes we have the spring clip ones now but mostly made with plastic. I
haven't seen the others in the shops for years.

I hate the plastic ones. They break too easily.
