I should have thought about but I didn't realise crocheting would felt just as well as knitting. Thanks so much. Cherrie

It's so furry, I want to touch it!

Lara said...

Oh yes, yes, yes! This is fantastic Annie! Love it.

Nikki said...

Loving it! I'm tempted to dust off the crochet hooks again. (That Lara Thornberry has me thinking about it too!).

that looks great and although it felted it doesn't look like it shrank too much - might just do that with mine!

How cool is that! I liked it before, but after...wow!

Jenny said...

You must have made a few of these now-just love how it turned out-so fluffy and furry-glad to see the crochet hook out again!

Unknown said...

Wow that looks fantastic !

picciolo said...

Leanne said...

I wish I could crochet - still doesn't seem to be a lot of report writing happening.

Fabulous Annie. I'm on a felting gig at the moment. Every second evening there's something swishing around in the machine!

Debbie said...

What a fabulous transformation.....you really just want to snuggle into it, rather tahn use it as a bag!!!

Anonymous said...

Think your bag is fabulous. Is the pattern yours and one you are willing to share as I would love to make one. Not a very quick crocheterer but get there in the end. If you can't supply pattern will you be making more bags and selling them.
