OOOOh -- do you have pictures on the web that you could share a link to???? I have made only two small felted handbags and they were such fun. I figure that they should lend themselves fairly easily to using up wool stash and playing with color and pattern but haven't been brave enough yet. (I have to work at the felting though since I have a low water use front loading washing machine) Welcome to the group - we are an international family of knitters and crocheters - both male and female and all ages etc. We love to hear about each others work, so dive in and participate.

Holly! I remember you! Noreen and... w e l c o m e

Welcome back, Holly. Do you *really* need to justify adding to your stash?

Welcom back Holly,

I remember you also.

Hugs & God bless, Dennis & Gail

Welcome back Holly.

Hi, Holly! I'm new here since you were here before, but wanted to welcome you back anyhow!

Eve :o)

PS - Would love to see pics (as JCT asked) if you're able to show us.

Thanks for the "welcome backs" -- felting is a great way to use up small amounts of yarn -- just be sure that you make a swatch first! (dontcha hate that!) I just finished a small pouch size bag using yarn from Lisa Souza Dyeworks and I'm starting on a new design for a bag that's more of a small tote out of some Lopi Letti I found on sale at the Beehive Yarn Shop in Victoria, BC. I also have a hooded scraf on the needles -- but that's slow going. It's out of a fine alpaca (little needles) and I seem to only work on it on road trips. My goal is to finish it by November! And I have lots of UF sweaters -- we won't go there! Is it politcally correct to tell you that you can see photos of my bags on my website at

I started selling my patterns after I my house was filling up with bags and some friends wanted to sell the patterns in their booths at Stitches. One thing led to another. And now I have even more bags filling the house because I make two samples for every design and then have test knitter make a sample...lots of Christmas presents.

Thanks again for the welcome. Holly

Yes, dear Holly, it's perfectly PC to tell us about your blog and patterns and such! Hugs, Noreen

Holly, I went to your site for a quick look, and have saved it for more looks later (smile). I also love making felted bags, so have an appreciation for your designs. They are incredible! Good luck and I hope you sell lots!

Hi Holly,

Welcome back and I love your bags as I just went to your website to see them. Now, you could use threads if you join the exchange in your smaller bags.

Hugs,
