Felting Frenzy

First, more (but not much better) photos of the Chicago Bag. I sewed on a jumbo metal snap (being careful not to have my stitches go right through the flap) to keep it closed. The snap is a bit tight, but it works well. Here is is with my jumbo wallet, handcream, phone, and eyeglasses case. There's still a bit of room for lipgloss and my Palm.

And here it is in use from the front and side:


I love this purse--this one's a gift, so I'll be making myself one in Kureyon next chance I get.

To continue the felting frenzy, I finished knitting my first Booga Bag (another great pattern) on Saturday night and will felt it today. I shamelessly stole the great striping idea from Kate. And thankfully I had just enough yarn to finish it.

It's going to be felted with my first pair of Fuzzyfeet which I finished last night.

These are for my Aunt who has teeny feet. So I'm going to felt them a bit big and let her re-felt them to get a perfect fit.

Wow, you've been busy! Everything looks great, but I particularly like the colour on the fuzzy feet. Can't wait to see them and the booga bag felted.

Happy dance! Happy dance! Felting gets me motivated, too. What is it about dumping wool in hot water?

Hey Steph, how much Kureyon did you need for the Fuzzy Feet? Trying to figure out what to do with my own Rosedale leftovers!

(Nice bag, too :))
