Desolation Felting...

My bag is ready for the washer- Damn it work gets in the way of everything crafty. I taught myself the kitchener stitch, or what I think is the kitchener stitch, last night. I finished 'fusing' the handles together this morning before I left for yoga... I don't sew. I am hoping that felting will be forgiving. Tonight I will post a picture once the bag comes out of the washer. I am a bit nervous since I have a front load, but I am sure it will be fine. I can't WAIT!

For this project I used the French Market bag from Knitty.com and Araucania worsted.

The ProcrastiKnitters (this is my SnB gang) are thinking about participating in a local craft fair this fall. So I need to pick out a project that I can make multiples of and that will knit up fast. Any ideas? I am thinking hats, and maybe some change purses, maybe a few felted items... hmm .

I will be heading out of town for a three day weekend. A gang of us will be hiking up in to Lake Aloha in desolation wilderness near So. Lake Tahoe/Fallen Leaf Lake. Let's hope the weather holds and it isn't wet and soggy- or freezing! What's with the weather all the sudden- ug
