"Two-Faced" Cracked Earth Tote- Part 8

The finished tote...

         

                                                      ...with leather straps.



                                                            The bag interior.




                                               During the 'freeing' of the resist...



                      ...the felt could have been trimmed to make smaller 'scales'...



                                    ...revealing more of the dark, background wool.


                                                                           
                                                           On the grid side...



                    ...the yarn inclusions could have been made more visible...



                                 ...if the scales had been trimmed a bit smaller, too.



                                                                For my part...



                          ...I prefer having only a wee glimpse into the darkness. ;)
                                                  





I'll be away again for a few weeks.

Look for new posts from me in mid-May.
