Booga Bag before and after...

Booga Bag and i-cord all knit and ready to be felted...
All finished after five runs through the machine. Still not nearly as thick as I was hoping for, and it does not stand on it's own like it should. I'm going to try another bag, and see what happens...

Oh my word that is beautiful!

To make the bag stand on its own, you can knit a double base or cut some plastic canvas in the right shape, cover it in fabric, and make a sturdy base to insert in it. (These are things I've read about, but never done them myself.)

I have to get some of that yarn! (How much did you use to make this bag?)
