Felted Tote - start to finish



Here is a felted tote that I just finished. My first felting and knitting on cable needles - in the round (untwisted after 3 tries)! Good job, me. I love the yarn, I used a combination Lumpy Bumpy by Farmhouse Yarns and a double strand of Cascade 220 Wool, because my yarn shop does not carry the Berroco.

Before I felted:


After I felted - it shrunk from 16" x 24" to about 14" square. I wasn't sure whether to have the knit side out or the purl side out, but for now i have the knit side.
