This bag can hold water
I'm a new knitter, so I really like felting. All the sins seem to get washed away in my front loader. After trying out the process a few times, I decided to take on the MD Buttonhole bag. It would be easy. And I would rock the world. Or so I thought.Ok. I got lazy. I didn't watch the clock. I put it on "hot wash" in my front loader and walked away. I put it on a second time, and walked away. But the third time? Well, come on! I was just asking for it.
The result was my version of the Buttonhole bag. It's very tight, but still very cute. My knitting friends call it "Waterproof."

Your little felted bag is adorable!
I too have a front loader and have tried a couple of felting projects. With the Booga bag....I did 3 times in the washer and then about 15 minutes in a bucket with a plunger....what a good way to destress!!! But the Booga bag turned out great....best of luck in all your knitting :)

I like your bag! I sometimes over-felt because I like for the surface to appear as smooth as possible. My buttonhole bag took 2 tries in a top-loader.
