Well....

Okay, beacuse Laura has read this blog and I feel the need to explain what happened to the wedding present knitting project (only eight months ago) and because I feel comfortable with the fact that Laura will more then likely laugh at this, I'm going to admit to the calamity! I was attempting to knit a neat felted bag of blue for my friend that loves blue and knitting. After knitting the sack protion of the bag I tossed it in the washer to felt and when I took it out found that it had shrunk WAAYYYY more then anticipated. Yes I know I should have knitted a test swatch, but I'm too much of and engineer to do that! Anyrate what I got was an oblong bowl looking thing and thought well I'll give it to her anyway maybe she'll find a use for it and I filled it with money I figured at the very least she'd laugh at it and say "what the heck is this" which would then be followed by "yeah money." And becasue I havn't yet learned to enjoy my knitting desasters I took no pictures.
