I have started on my felted bag. Right now I have to tell you, it is butt ugly. But I have high hopes. LOL It's so dern big and loosely crocheted...yeah, I was going to knit it but I work so much better and faster in the round with that crochet hook.
I used the 2 plyed handspun wool for the base or bottom of the bag. It will be heavy duty and perfect for the bottom. Then I found all the balls of handspun wool I could and have begun to crochet. I am using leftovers of the fun fur novelty yarn in it. I think it will look really great. I started on it yesterday but have not gotten to work since then. Housework, schoolwork and a project with my youngest daughter.
She has been bugging me for a rag doll forever. So, since she was done with her schoolwork for Christmas break I helped her use the sewing machine and we made a doll. It is Amish style right now (meaning it has no face) but we will make one for it soon. Probably Friday.
Oh and on that note, my hubby and I will be celebrating our 17 th wedding anniversary on the 17th! Ha! Can't do that ever again now can we? I think we will go to the Olive Garden and catch a movie and then a little Christmas shopping.
I have some more housework to do before church tonight so I need to go for now. I'll write more later.
