Reversible Felted 'Japanese Knot Bag'- Part 2

Adding new colors...


                                                   ...to the white wool surface.



                                               Flipping the project to side two...



                                  ...folding in the overhanging wool from side one...



                                           ...and repeating the layering process.



                                                     Mid-way through felting...



                                               ...the wool is beginning to shrink...



                                                     ...and to become firmer.



                                         Once the project passes the 'pinch test'...



                                                        ...the soft felt is cut...

                                                  ...and the resist is removed.



                                                   Next time: the finished tote.

It looks as though you will be carrying a flame!
