I felted/fulled my current knitting project last night. The results did not turn out as I had expected, but that is because of my own lack of attention to check the amount of shrinkage the first time around, rather than tossing it back into the hot wash for another few minutes. At least it turned into something interesting, though I am out of all my wool I will have to go to my local yarn shop to do buy some more. Perhaps this time around I will knit a much larger bag, I’m thinking a giant flat panel where I would sew the sides and bottom all together to make the bag.
You can see a picture of my finished project in my flickr.
It is currently Spring Break and the weather certainly is not saying the same thing. Where are the flowers, the green grass, the sunshine? There was so much rain yesterday, as well as a cold wind. It felt like the beginnings of winter. I really hope that the weather takes a proper turn for the rest of the week, especially Easter Weekend. I do not want miserable weather for when I am up at the cabin…
