My Booga Bag is complete, and I'm so proud of it. In fact, I've thoroughly enjoyed everything about this project. The pattern is very well written, it's a fast, easy knit, and the yarn was a dream to work with. Plus, I learned a new skill! The felting process was the scariest part, because this is the first time I've felted
something bigger than a cat toy. It took three passes through the washer, about a day and a half to dry, but I did it! The only drawback (and it's really not a big drawback as far as I'm conserned) is that if you look closely, you can still see a little stitch definition. I suppose I could have run it though the wash again, but I chose not to. The more felting, the smaller the bag, and this bag is the perfect size for my needs. I highly recommend this project to anyone who wants to venture into felting, but feels intimidated by the process. If I can do it, trust me, you can do it, too.
