Mum has been knitting, well she almost knits non stop its her favorite thing to so (beside buying yarn to knit).
She made these beautiful triangles from 100% to felt after it is all sewn together.
However the bag turned out tiny after felting! After so many hours the result was very small, pretty , but small.
So she started again, this time much bigger triangles.
This time it really turned in to a bag or lets say a decent sized bag :)
Here you can see them together to compare. Looks fun as a mother-daughter duo, but they are available in the bag shop separately.
After mum finished the knitting and felting, I sewed the zippers and linings and riveted leather straps to them. They are available at StarBags, among many other special bags :)

I like the little bag the best! I can see it as a perfect party bag with a black dress.
