1st Place
The Vagabond's Valise
13.5x12.7"

Linda Kraft
Riverside, CA

A modified version of an original felted bag pattern by Eilel Quiles, an employee of Designer Hand Knits in Riverside , CA . The challenge was – what would happen if I knitted strips of the Hoffman Challenge fabric along with the wool and other novelty yarns? Would the bag felt? Several experiments later – the answer is YES! The challenge fabric added both interesting texture and color.
