OSSP EXCHANGE GIFT

This photo shows my gift to Julia in Colorado.

The bag was felted after it was knitted with handspun/hand dyed wool and commercial "feathers". The pattern is based on the little clutch bag in the "One Skein" book by Leigh Radford. It was knitted larger (and longer) than in the book, and I added more stitches for the handle.

I also included some handmade buttons made from the Australian Hakia bush and a copy of the Australian publication Creative Knitting magazine.

The daffadils in the photo were on the front of a carry bag which I brought in Maldon.
