felted bag fun

[Jewels]

I had fun crocheting this little bag - it crocheted up very quickly.

I mostly used Marlo's round winter purse pattern (http://www.marloscrochetcorner.com/Round%20Winter%20Purse.html).

Oooh! Very nice! I really love the colors. I don't have a clue how felting is done, but I like the way it turned out!

I love it! What kind of yarn did you use? It had to be 100% wool, to felt, right? Very cool. I love your choice of colors, too.:)h

I'm going to join in with the "love the colors" thing -- I wish I had some pretty rose and sand and "desert" colors to work with right now, myself. I like the look of that purse so much, I guess I need to try making one. (I'm nervous, not sure about working in rounds.) I do still have some red and navy blue wool left, though... <g> Sounds like another felt bag in the offing.

Thanks for the inspiration! I need all ideas and creative energy I can get, as I hope to make almost all the Christmas gifts for everyone but my hubby and son this year, and while that will be a big help financially, it could get stressful if I start to feel overwhelmed or out of ideas. But now that I found these boards, I somehow suspect there will be ideas aplenty!

I have no idea what Felting is LOL But the bag is wonderful and I agree with everyone else the color combination is wonderful.
