Even after years of designing felt bags I still have the odd few moments of doubt which assail me when I have finished knitting and before I commit my work to the washing machine to felt.
My daughter thought this latest design was amazing and after much laughter.....
She decided I must have made her a new sleeping bag!
or maybe it was a snug pod to huddle in at festivals!
I love the moments when I open the washing machine to see my work transformed into felt. Each new colour blend and shape is still exciting to see, and after stretching and shaping I think this latest pattern has been a success.
So much of a success that I have now "lost" my new bag to Emma.
Which I guess it OK. Although I made the bag from my leftover yarn stash - so there is no way of making another one exactly the same.....

It's beautiful! Love the button too. Lucky Emma :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is really lovely, the colour blend is great!
ReplyDeleteI was so excited to see how the colours would felt together. I can never be sure how it will come out. I guess that's what I love about the craft :O)
