A Bags Tale


Anyone who knows me knows I love tote bags.

So when the chance to join the Tote_Exchange came along, I jumped on it. Besides tote bags I have felted socks and toys and even a few sweaters (unintentionally). I also love doing exchanges. I started my first tote, a 'bucket bag'. Since I am always working out of a tote, I thought something that would sit on the floor beside a favorite knitting spot would be just the thing. I used Galway wool, my favorite felting wool, and added a carry along of hand painted sock yarn.
