Felted Purse

Paula had sent me some great yarn a while back, and I finally found the perfect pattern for one of the colors. The label promised that it was good felting yarn. Out came my book of purse patterns, and here's what I made.

Hook: Size K

Yarn: Lion Brand Landscapes, Color: Spring Desert
Washed and dried: 3-4 times

Final product:
It looks brighter because it's a much sunnier day today, and I used a different camera. Other than that, I like the results!

My first attempt at felting is stamped a success.

  3. Hey well done you! You know what? I always thought you only had to wash something once to felt it... maybe that's why the load of old jumpers I tried to felt didn't work....

    Are you coming to link up to the Learn a New Technique ongoing linky?
