Well, I made a felted bag with the yarn! :)
Yarn: Moda Dea Cache
Pattern: None
I only used double crochet stitches so this bag was one evening project, which I LOVE! Last year, I experimented felting with a project for which I only double-crocheted, and it felted just fine so since then, I like to just use dc for my own felting projects (although I love the Tunisian crochet stitches as well).
This bag is thick and sturdy, and I think it's perfect for carrying around materials for crochet & knit projects!
I got to say, my felting is really going well. :))
I recently went to one of my local craft stores first time in a long time, bought some yarn to make 3 more bags, and also found they now carry the Red Heart Soft Yarn(About time)! Yay!!! I only bought 1 skein this time just to try this yarn, but I know (& I knew), this is going to be my favorite yarn! I'm already dreaming about soft and comfy afghans and such... :)
Well, they wait way too long to have this yarn in their store! :(
We need new yarns more quickly, down here in Mississippi!!!!!
That's a GREAT looking bag. I love it!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your bag! I think the design is great! Love your blog too!
ReplyDeleteThe yarn looks really wonderful when felted. I like that style of a bag :)
ReplyDeleteOoh Chie, that is a lovely bag! I've always wanted to try felting something with that yarn. Reallly nice!
ReplyDeleteI am a fellow crochetviller (leaderladyK) although I hardly post there. Anyway, I LOVE this bag. Do you have plans to write down the pattern. I would love to make this. I have NEVER felted before, but I would totally try this.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the bag. Lovely !
ReplyDeleteOoo, love the bag! Did you use a pattern? If not, would you write a pattern for it? I have to have it, pretty please. That is the perfect bag! please, please, please
ReplyDeleteChie,
ReplyDeleteYou know we all want a copy of that pattern. Can you write it down for us. Please??
Sharon :))))
Love that bag Chie! I also have to comment that I am a lover of that Red Heart Soft as well. It is about time that it doesn't hurt to use worsted weight wouldn't you say?
ReplyDeleteWow, thank you all so much!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm working on the pattern and will be posting it here soon. ;)
That is one hot bag
