I had a great time crafting for my swap partner over on Craftster. I haven't gotten my package yet but since my partner has hers it won't ruin any surprises if I post the things I made here.
One project was Amanda's Squatty Sidekick from Knitting Daily. If you haven't signed up for their e-mails yet, I highly recommend them. This was a quick knit and used less than a skein of Peace Fleece which turned out to be the perfect yarn for this bag. I found the button at my favorite LYS, Mission Rose Quiltery. The only mod I made to the pattern was to lengthen the i-cord portion of the handle a bit.
Without further ado:
pre-felting:
and after the magic or a top-loading washing machine:
On a sad note, it seems people can't leave comments here on my blog right now. My amazing webmistress is working on it and hopefully, we'll be up and running in that department soon!
