The knitting
The knitting proceeds. I finally finished the four-square mitered tote from Bags - a Knitter's dozen. Here are some pics from the process.
Here it is with all 8 squares sewn together for the 2 sides, and the beginning of attaching the gusset.
And here it is all assembled, but pre-felting.
And here it is after the felting. It shrank from 16 inches across to 12, and lost a lot of fuzz and dye.
I'm going to use it a lot, and wash it a few more times to get it to shrink all it can, and then I may put in a fabric lining.
It's pretty nice for a first felting project.
