Pretty
Sew Flo bags on Etsy!! If you like nerdy stuff and need a new geeky knitting bag, check her bags out!   (It looks like the shop is on vacation for a bit, but she'll be back soon).  The one I won from her shop is a Small Pyramid Pouch, which is a little small for a knitting bag, but they are available in larger sizes and different styles that would all be great knitting bags.  Even the smaller ones would make great notion bags.

Save The Stash
Vacuum, vacuum, vacuum!! And from the Yarn Harlot: Air out your stash regularly!

My method for trying to save my stash:
1. Quarentine until you can get to it, if you can't do it immediately
2. Soak in warm soapy water
3. Microwave the wet yarn (proterin fiber based, no acrylic!) in 2-3 minute segments for a total of 10 minutes.
4. Air dry
5. If you really want to be sure, once its dry, put it in the freezer for a day
