Felted Diaper Bag
Lion Brand® Lion® Wool
GAUGE: 11 sc + 12 rows = 4" [10 cm] before felting. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
NOTES: Bag will shrink during felting process.

| Felted Diaper Bag Reviewed by Jennifer on 2010-03-01 |

| I made this with an "H" hook and wool yarn. I only needed 4 skeins of variegated yarn, it was a bit tedious, but fun and I love the end result.
