Party Doll

Posted by Knottylady Designs Showstoppers on 11/27/2006
A fun & pretty kniited/felted bag with a lovely pink fashion button and crocheted edging around the flap, handles and top edge. I crocheted around the buttonhole to give the button a look of a flower in a garden. A large interior pocket continues the theme with floral edging . I held a fun fur novelty yarn together with the main color yarn and after the felting & drying process; I shaved the bag to give it a fuzzy look without all of the fun fur. This bag is very roomy and lots of fun to carry around. Thanks for stopping by.

Trendy or traditional ; pretty and petite are perfect adjectives for these gorgeous knitted , felted & needle felted bags. Until I have a bag in the works and complete it; I have never "FELT" this kind of passion for an art form which is not unique to this era but has been handed down though generations and has become more popular for bags, slippers,mittens, scarves and anything that can be knitted with the gorgeous wools on the market along with so many beautiful novelty yarns. I hope that you enjoy looking at my felted pieces as much as I enjoy the whole process from hand spun yarn to kettle dyeing to the final felting process it is a challenging and fulfilling artform. The process of needle felting adds decorative wool 'pictures' to my finished felted pieces & at times gives the piece a three dimentional look. It is a very rewarding process. I have used many mediums and this is one of my favorites because it is like 'PAINTING WITH YARN". My theme bags/totes are exciting to create but I have other artistic creations that I will enjoy sharing with you. Thank You for stopping by. Patricia Maxwell
