my dr. suess-like felted bag
This is my pretty felted bag. I have made it out of Lamb's Pride wool/mohair blend. I have used the two colours "Sapphire" and "Aztec Turquoise". These are the "before" pictured... it was just over 26" high, and was cast on as 120 stitches on size 13 US needles.
This is what it looked like after I threw it in the wash twice (hot setting, with a little soap), and was left to air-dry.
I'm very proud of it.. it shrunk by 25 to 30%; and it's so fun to wear!!

the evil red scarf from hell....
this scarf was the bane of my existance.
it almost made me not want to knit. it is a mess of dropped stitches, massive tumour-like increases in the side of the scarf, massive decreases in portions, made with the crappiest $3.99 needles I ever bought . Lesson learned... buying knitting needles at Walmart may not be such a good idea after all.
This scarf is about 6 feet long ... it had to be as tall as my husband before I was allowed to stop knitting it.
Here it is, in all it's glory..
