One of my passions is to create the
felted purse. It can be as easy as finding a woolen
second hand sweater and felting it in the washing machine then cutting and sewing the
felted purse into any style you wish. You can add store bought handles or create your own.
as pictured here. I used a fairisle sweater and
felted it in the washer, when dry I then created the bag.

This next
felted purse was made by knitting a larger bag by hand and then felting it in the washing machine and blocking it into shape and drying.

Other felting techniques can be found on my web site
