Booga bag

BOOGA BAG

  This is my version of the booga bag.  Very fast and easy. Made it for the daughter, but she feels it is too bright. 
I love it! The first pic is of the pre-felted bag.  I used 3 skeins of Noro 100% wool. In the brightest colors I could find.
The directions don't tel
l you, but I didn't want any leftover yarn. I used two full skeins, then made a 6 foot strap. with the rest of the yarn I continued on the bag, till I used up all the yarn, bound off and felted. I liked the "no yarn left". Just a thought if you make one. I like making the bag and would probably make another.  It takes a weekend to do. Or a good road trip.  
Not much to blog, I am starting the baby cardigan. It is going to be cute. I can see the fair isle starting. I have to have this done before we leave for summer break. 
I will post a pic soon. That's it for now. Take care, keep knitting.
