This medium cat tote is The Cat's Meow! A tortoiseshell is a cat whose coloring is a flecked mixture of either black & red & sometimes some white & cream. ' Jennyanydots' from the musical Cats by Andrew Lloyd Webber has three costumes & one is very like the tortie cat. I knitted/felted this fun cat bag with black wool & various novelty yarns. Top lower edge has gorgeous reddish beads knitted/felted all around. A pretty tortie pendant hangs from the top front or one can use the lovely fashion pin. Interior pocket, lovely interior top edging & interior base fashion tortie fabric covered foamcore. Torties have made their mark in history & folklore. Enjoy The Cat's Meow!

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
