I finally finished my messenger bag and I love it. The pattern is by Coco Knits. I actually finished knitting it about 3 months ago, but just never got around to felting it. I live in an apartment building and sitting up in the laundry room for several agitation cycles just did not appeal to me. Then my mother-in-law saved me....we went for a visit and she let me use her washer for my stinky wet wool! There was supposed to be a ROUND button on it that I was going to embroider the button holes on but....funny thing...it does not shrink proportionately....so I got an oval. So I made it look like a patch, added some french knots....and voila! I am HAPPY with the outcome. I am making more to sell right now!
