Felt Like Felting
I have made my first felted item and I love it! It's also the first purse I've ever knitted and the first time I've created my own design. Happy dance! I made it with Knit Pick's Wool of the Andes. At just $1.99 a ball, this yarn is amazing. I knitted this single stranded with #8 needles and it is gorgeous. I worked with some wool over the weekend that was about 3 times the price and had to be knitted double stranded and still didn't felt as well as this.

I love it, and can't relate. I'd be your perfect ball roller, snack maker and booze drinker while you knit. I think I'm a bit too ADD for the knitting. However, I do like to walk in the yarn store and rub on skeins of exotics. Baby steps!
How about I teach you to knit when you come to visit? You've heard that its the new yoga!
ha. new yoga? my pal with the yarn shop just emailed me to see if I could help her get all 10 million yogis started knitting!
maybe we could have a yoga and knitting retreat? knoga? yotting?
liv: I'm voting for knoga! BTW, at the knitting retreat I went to last weekend in Boone, we started each morning off at 7:30 with yoga!
Don't you just LOVE felting? I love love love it!!!
And yes, I think Yoga and Knitting go together perfectly! Liv, I'm sure you'll love knitting, once she gets you addicted... er.. i mean...teaches you how!
