Knit, Knit, Knit....

This is my first knitted project, many thanks to Mary. Last week she took me to her favorite yarn store. I purchased 2 books 3 skeins of yarn and a circular needle...

I knitting this purse in about 4 hours including ripping it out twice. I was hooked :-) ... Today I spent a good part of this afternoon trying to felt it. I thought it would have shrunk a bit more than it actually did, but it's still ok. After it dried, I sewed on the ribbon of bead. I had had this ribbon of beads for several years; I knew there would be the perfect project for them someday.
