| Felting makes this little heirloom treat bag thick and strong! The intarsia design is simple and a great introduction to the technique! |

Felted Halloween Trick or Treat Bag
Lion Brand® Lion® Wool
GAUGE: 20 sts + 24 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in stockinette stitch 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: Finished Bag size depends on how much the piece is felted. Keep in mind that you can always felt more, but once felting is done, it is not reversible. Pattern uses a very small quantity (about 24 inches [61 cm]) of the sage
