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

    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!

    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!

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

    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.
