These are bags/purses/totes I am currently working on.
The first bag is knitted and will be felted. It will be a clutch style as it has built in handles. I love the touch of novelty yarn in the center.
The next two are felted, I need to add a handle and maybe a lining with a pocket.
Adding lining to these bags is such a drag! I can't just sew through all the layers with a machine, I have to hand sew the top and hand tack the bottom. And it takes a lot of measuring, sewing, cutting, and re-sewing to get the lining to lay right.
I didn't knit handles for any of these bags as I thought I would add something unique like beaded handles or bamboo, but nothing looks right.
This orange bag is ADORABLE!

The colors on the sixth bag are gorgeous with deep blue and shades of brown.
The last bag is a purse with a ruffled top edge. I think the ruffle will look cute once felted. I'm curious to see how the two colors together in the body of the bag will look.
