knitting fun-ness
Hey, i am so excited for a little tiny reason. I just learned how to post texts and pics behind lj cuts! wowie!
I had to do this so i could post on my knitting lj account. I can only show my knitting projects if they are behind a cut.
So, just for practice i am going to do the same here.
I knitted a grocery bag for a friend. It was then felted [you put it in the wash with hot water and some clothes to agitate the knitted item]. The result is like a boiled wool you see on pea coats.
Here is the grocery bag, before felting:
And here it is after felting:
Inside the felted bag is a sock project i am working on right now. I've had to take a small hiatus, since my left wrist has been hurting [prolly shouldn't even be typing, i imagine].
Well me dearlings. Hope this week treats you fine.
