Tunisian Crescent Bag

[AngelRoseLite]

I finally made and finished this bag by Kim Guzman. I felted for the first time. I'll keep a better eye next time (Note to self: More washing time equals more shrinkage). The bag measures 13.5 inches across, and the strap measures 15.5 inches. The pictures show first the felted bag and second the bag before felting. I am in love with Tunisian crochet

 

07/13/13:  It's been a long time, but I embellished the bag and entered it into the tapestry competition this coming September in the L.A. County Fair.

Many, many thanks, ladies. I am not satisfied with it, though. I am going to line it. The outside of it, though, looks like it needs something, doesn't it? Maybe flower(s) in a dark pink or beading? Ideas are welcome

Thank you very much!  It's one of Kim Guzman's patterns.  It's called the Tunisian Crescent Bag (of course, lol), and it's on Ravelry.  It's well worth purchasing.  I'm in the middle of planning another one but with a couple of modifications.  I really love this pattern
