Happy Thanksgiving! It was a quiet day with a small gathering of 4, but very enjoyable. Good to see my parents, it's been too long. One of my knitting friends joined us and proceeded to knit up about a foot of a new scarf while the turkey was roasting. My mom has a fancy shmancy new washer, so I gave it a test drive and felted up Ashten's tote (my first felting project). Of course I showed everyone the before, which they oo'd and ah'd over (which was funny, because pre-felted items always look weird and out of shape). But wow, when it came out of the wash....amazing! I only had to give it two washings and I put it in a mesh bag so that the handles wouldn't get stretched out of shape. Here's how it looked and I have to admit, I'm pretty impressed with myself right now and ready to keep on felting.
