My name is Spunknit & I am a bagaholic. I can't stop myself from making bags & purses. I don't need anymore bags, but they are so much fun to make. I can experiment with colors & patterns, different techniques, ideas and more. I've done cotton, recycled plastic bags and wool, felted or not.
So here is yet ANOTHER bag that I've finished. Its wool, so I'm going to felt it. Okay, I don't NEED another bag, but I thought a small one that I could throw in some knitting & go would be great. Its too small for my daughter to steal for a purse...I hope. Its not really her colors, anyway.
This one was cool, cause I only used 2 skeins of yarn. A fun challenge. I added an I-cord strap & a front patch-type pocket for added utitlity. I loved the way the grommets looked on the previous bag for my daughter, so I'm going to put grommets on this one, too. I may add a closure of some type. I'm still thinking about it, I hadn't planned on one, but it might be nice to have.
I'm going to felt it later today, after I attach the grommets. I'm going with a nice gold color grommet, it should look very nice with the coloring of the bag. I'll think about the closure issue & felt away! Pictures to come later.
