I got bit by the knitting bug again...(sigh) A friend came by two
weeks ago and brought along the bag she had felted called "The Booga
Bag" http://www.blacksheepbags.com/booga_bag.html

The following week a different friend and I went out for lunch, so
stopped by the local yarn shop to check out the colours that Noro
Kureyon yarn comes in. Well, of course, the yarn was on sale for 15%
off, so I left with three balls. There is just no resisting...

take care, Linda (who has too many projects on the go!)

I did a Booga bag as my first on-purpose felting. I would have liked
it bigger, I realized after it was dry.

Higs,

I cast on my NYCO booga bag with twice as many stitches and plan to
increase the sides proportionally -- we shall see how I like that
size. I cast it on and then put it aside while I finish up some WIPs.
I am making it with a different varigated all wool yarn, however.

Judy,
That is a very good idea, both to make it bigger, and the wool. I cannot
get the Kureyon here, but at last one of the online yarn shops here
has got yarn I can use.

Just now I make a moebious scarf, Inspired by Mirjam, and her way to
knit more than one row at a time.
She has given me very good explanations here at the NG.
("The magic Non Loop"- tread)

Linda,
I completely understand how it is to be beaten of a bug!
I haven't done much lately, exept 6x6 squares for exchange, but when I
read Mirjams message I got "stucked" :)
I got some yarn yesterday, and after that I haven't done much other than
knitting ;-)

Aud ;-))
