Hand knit in stockinette stitch this whimsical amulet bag with its drawstring top edge boasts black pony bead at each end of the drawsting ties. A long over-the-shoulder/neck cord leaves the hands free & can be knotted for length . I handstitched , beaded & embellished a piece of fabric for the elegant front applique which is stitched on. A crocheted edge embellishes the top of this amulet bag which measures 5" wide x 7" high. Applique is 2" wide by 4" high. Thanks for stopping by for a look at Sparkle Plenty. Enjoy!

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
