Felted Clutch
for the 2nd project I made for the OneSkien knitalong I used a local Israeli yarn by TeddysWool, 100% wool which I was told by the LYS owner that it felts nicely. She even showed me a sample of the felting, however, I wasn't happy with how mine felted. It had to go in the washer at least 5 times and it still doen't look like what she showed me. The clutch is quite small since it wasn't a very chunky yarn so I used 4.5 mm Addis and it shrunk quite a bit...I don't really know what i'll use it for.
I finished knitting it during a commute and my son was so excited that he grabbed it from me and tried it on as he thought it was a hat.
here is is after felting.
