An Old Standby!

I made this bag for a silent auction donation.

It is the Sophie bag made out of Cascade 220.

I am not thrilled with the results of the felting. We switched to a front loading washing machine and it just doesn't felt the way my top loader did.

Recently, I made a similiar smaller Sophie for a

Ronald McDonald House Fundraiser and it went for $90!

I was glad that the money went to a good cause but was giggling inside at the two women that were fighting over the bag! If they only knew how inexpensive the bag was to make!

I don't know what it is with me and making hats. They never come out the way it looks in the pattern. Maybe it's because I don't use the right gauge yarn...whatever it is I am usually not too happy with the results.

This hat is cute, but not the 6-9 month size listed in the patten. I did substitute a different yarn so the gauge is off. I do like the results of this one though. Just think, the family will think of me fondly two years down the road when their toddler is big enough to wear it!
