Rosey Vroom Shoulder Bag
A felted project for beginner knitters!

© 2005 Heidi Eikenhorst

Materials:

Lamb’s Pride Bulky weight wool as follows:

Color A: 2 skeins - Midnight Green (M-195)

Color B: 2 skeins - Pistachio (M-184)

Color C: 1 skein – Old Sage (M-69)

Color D: 1 skein – Garnet (M-25)

Color E: 1 skein – Aubergine (M-185)

Bag is worked with a single strand of bulky wool. If you would like to substitute worsted weight wool for the bulky make sure to use two strands held together, this will require more yardage.

Needles:
Size US 13 circular needles, 24 inch

Dimensions:

Before Felting: 14 tall x 10 wide x 5 deep, Finished: 9” tall x 7 ½” wide x 3 ½” deep.

All dimensions are approximate and depend largely on the amount of material used, the felting time and the gauge.

Gauge:
3 sts./inch. Note: Gauge is not as important with felted projects. Tight knitters should definitely use size13 needles; very loose knitters may want to jump down to a size 11. However, I knit slightly looser than average and used size 13 needles quite successfully.
