Felting is so much fun and there is a lot of information on the web about the process. You just have to try it and then you will be hooked!

http://www.solitudewool.com/ The fiber I used was a special yarn purchased at a show by Solitude Wool. It is a blend of two types of yarn: Tunis (in shades of green, rust, turquoise) and Karakul (in dark teal). After making the bag, I felted it to blend the colors and they look great together. Note: All stitches were single crochet worked through BOTH loops. I also made a felted bowl working through back loops only and it gives an entirely different look to the finished fabric.

I recently finished this felted tote and just had to share. I haven't made a bag in quite some time, but I think this one is a keeper and has inspired me to make more!

Hello, Sue. What an awesome little bag! Nice job. -
Love this bag. I have only tried tapestry crochet once in a sweater I made quite a long time ago. I saw the blue birds first. Unique design.
