Looks to me like it came out great. I like the feel of these bags. I wondered at first how anyone could knit something so heavy and tight and then...and kindly too... someone explained to this nonknitter about the shrinking. Very cool.

Well don't feel too out of the loop. I've been knitting for over 30 years (off and on) and I only learned about felting in the past year! I've always been primarily a sweater knitter, so felting was never on my radar.

It's pretty amazing what you can do with a top loading washing machine, some HOT water, and a pair of old blue jeans. I'm so fascinated with it that I have several more projects in the queue to explore the technique further.

I'm such a fibre nerd. :)

That looks fabulous. I think you might have got me wanting to knit something without having it bought for me before.

I still need to take pictures of my birthday bag. I'll get to it soon.
