It's been quite a while since I've posted. May was the last time my life had any normalcy. *sigh*

Onward now. I've been knitting and feltimg some bags. Earlier I showed my first B4 bag, I just finished my second one. This time it's for me!

I don't remember what the yarn is, and I can't find the info at this time. It's a pretty, soft variegated wool, a single with a light twist. I forgot that I wasn't felting Cascade 220, and ran the washer a long time. It made a really solid bag. It's 10.5 inches wide and 6 inches tall. The buttons are from a Delactable Mountain, a local fabric store that specializes in silks and other exotic fabrics.

I also made another Scallops and Beads bag from Knit One, Felt Too. The purple wool I got from eBay, the green and Magenta is Cascade 220. This bag has a 4 stitch I-cord, I felt that the 3 stitch I-cord on my bag was too thin. I like this much better.
