The Sunset Tote

When I finished knitting the Sunset Tote, 2 thought it made a good sleeping bag.

I felted the ST on Saturday, and it's drying with a box of kitchen garbage bags inside. I used a single crochet edging instead of the whipstitch suggested in the pattern.

I opted for Grayson E. handles in Grape. I think this might get a lining. I could have waited until this was really a FO, but with the Christmas season upon us...that might be awile.

It's lovely! It does look like a sunset. What yarn did you use? The handles look great from the link you showed.

The Sunset Sleeping Bag looks great, but the Sunset Tote looks even better! :) I really like your edging on it.

What is the knitted size versus the finished size of your felted tote? It's amazing how much the yarn shrinks in the washing phase.
