"Pollockian Pre-Felt" Purse- Part 3

 Adding layers of wool to each side of the resist...


                              ...and fashioning hanging loops at the purse opening.



                                             The final layers of wool are added...



                                           ...and the rubbing and rolling begins.



                                                      Mid-way through felting...



                                 ...the project is beginning to shrink and to thicken.



                          After removing the resist and turning the bag right-side out...



                                     ...the project is rolled in different orientations...





                                        ...to achieve the desired size and shape.



                                                  Next time: the finished purse.

It looks even more Pollockian now - although with more of a sky-blue emphasis, rather than black...

Rachel--I'm glad it 'reads'! :)
