Look at this wonderful purse that was first knitted and then felted down.
Love the colors.
She said she just "made up the design", and that the purse was easy to make.
The bag was soft to the touch and sturdy enough that it didn't even need a lining.
Little bits of ribbon were intertwined amidst the yarns.
Learning to knit has been on my Wish List for years. sigh...someday.
Very, very nice! Often it is the items we design ourselves that we like the best. She did a gorgeous job on this one.
ReplyDeleteI want to learn to knit myself I have tried to teach myself several times but I just can't figure it out so I am taking a class at Joann's
ReplyDeleteI love this purse!! I wish I could knit, too.
ReplyDeleteI love those felted purses.
ReplyDeleteThese pocketbooks are really easy to make...you use circular needles, and just knit round and round, and round. The hardest part is getting it to felt! It's important to use a pure wool, so it will felt. I use a decorative yarn along with the wool, to achieve a pattern. Wish I was there, I'd show you how to make one! I line them, lots of pockets!
ReplyDeleteA perfect bag for year round but I'd love it in the winter. Great colors.
ReplyDeleteOh it is lovely. The colors are beautiful. How delightful!
ReplyDeleteThe knitted purse is so lovely! I wish I know how to knit so I can make such beautiful crafts. *sigh*
