Next Knitting Project
I have surfed eBay and found a seller (albeit in the US) who is selling the Noni pattern that I really quite like, it is for little bags the right kind of size for mobile phones, iPods and Nintendo DS’ – therefore I have placed an order for the pattern along with some pink and blue wool as recommended in the pattern. My niece is 8 in May and one of these bags would be perfect for her to keep her Nintendo in, so hopefully I will be able to start on this as soon as the package arrives.
The other positive is that I had a £5 voucher from an eBay email (usually I delete them so I’m quite pleased that I actually read this one!) so in total the pattern and two skeins of wool have only cost me £9.50 including postage.
Knitted Items
I’ve been searching the internet for ideas for knitted goods and have come across Noni which produce patterns for beautiful felted bags.
I think that felted bags of some description would be ideal for both gifts and selling. I have decided that I am going to invest in one of the Noni patterns and some of the wool that is recommended in the patterns – this would be my first attempt at felting – and knit up one of the bags to give to my niece for her birthday in May (it’s the kind of thing she would love), then I can use my experience to design some of my own patterns for bags to sell
