Drum roll please...

It's here at last. My bag, knitted and felted and finally finished.


Remember this....
















Well this happened to it....





and it came out like this....



and after the flower was added it looked like this...




.....so no longer a WIP but.....
I may still line it with some pretty fabric!

  3. How pretty it looks next to the begonia leaves! I've not tried felting, I'm very impressed with this bag! It looks so different from the piece you were knitting on needles a bit ago, quite a transformation. Nicely done!

  5. Wowee!! It's G*O*R*G*E*O*U*S!!!!!!!!!
    I love the colours and the feltiness and the flower. Did you make the flower too? could you show us how?
    I love to try felting but it would terrify me putting it in washing machine. It's lovely as it is, but the fabric lining idea sounds really good. And yes! you can use it. I would be so chuffed if I had a bag like That especialy if I made it myself.
    lots of love

  14. Hi Lyn, Just discovered you through Noelles blog - she encouraged me to start my blog. Ive had a quick rtad through your blog and youve made my day!! Firstly, one of your fave films is Yanks - I had so forgotten about that film. I really loved it (and my sis and I recreated the railway scene at Keighley station some time after - much to our dads embarrasment!) and also - you surely win the prize for the blogger with the longest list of "blogs I read"!!! I am in South Yorkshire - so a fellow tyke. You're not staying at Ayr campsite in May are you? If you are, I'll see you there. Loving your blog.
