    I’ve never tried felting, but would love to give it a go. To have some instructions would be great for this first timer!

    Re: the Felted Purse Kit Giveaway:
    This bag looks great! I would love to give this a go. I had a look at Chrissie’s website and she has written a book on wire jewellery which looks very interesting. I might have to have a closer look.

    I bought this kit a while ago and am using the yarn for a different felted bag I am currently knitting 🙂
    Love the colour.

  26. Leah says

    September 23, 2008 at 4:13 am

    That’s avery cool bag – I’d love to give it a go.

    September 23, 2008 at 6:31 am

    Count me in with the other Ravelers, and with those who didn’t know this site existed!
    I am going to spend some time here looking around for sure. I *want* to felt- but am afraid I’ll mess up some very nice wool- so a kit with instructions could just be a very lucky thing to get me off and running! Thank You for the opportunity to win! 🙂

    Good evening, I was wandering through the local Craft Markets this morning & saw some lovely felted work. The felted Purse Kit would be a brilliant place for me to begin a new obsession. Cheers

    I have always wanted to try a purse – so far I’ve only done small projects.
    A great give-away —

    A beginner at this and I find felting very relaxing and easy on the fingers. As a senior
    citizen it’s good exercise for my arthritis.
