This Week's Question (from the Spring Felted Bag Exchange)

How did you get interested in felting? Did you learn it from someone, see a bag you liked? Just want to try something new? If you have a picture of your first project, please include it!

My friend Lisa told me about a bag she'd seen someone sporting at Stitches Midwest last summer. I wanted to make that skull bag that she'd seen, but I'd never felted before. I decided to try something simpler in case I screwed it up royally. I crocheted a simple gray granny square bag from Reynold'd Lopi yarn I purchased at Stitch by Stitch in Highland. I blogged about it here.
