This will get me by until I have something fancier. I finished it in less than a week, and the price was right.
The before picture. I used four colors of Brown Sheep Lamb’s Pride, one skein of each. The finished bag was so huge, I didn’t think it would possibly shrink enough. I’ve felted knits before, but it still seemed like too much fabric. I started out making a medium bag, but switched to small in progress.
After the wash. Not bad! The bag is a little oversized, but it’ll definitely work. And it’s fuzzy. I like that.
I had enough yarn left over to make a little felted pouch for my mouse or adapter. I can either make a drawstring for it, or fasten it with a button. (I’m leaning toward the button.)
Now I’m working on my blue ponchette and a Mason-Dixon Knitting inspired rag rug.
I just occurred me to ask you: what kind of work will you be doing from home? I realize I am unclear on what you were doing before as a regular-salaried person.
BTW, congrats. Being self-employed is not for everyone, but it can be wonderful. I’ve never looked back.
