My First Felted Bag

Just a few minutes ago, I felted the first bag that I knitted using Malabrigo worsted weight wool almost 2 weeks ago. It's soooooooooo cute!!!! Although I noticed that even after I left it in the washer to agitate for 12 minutes, some stitches are still visible. Sucks. I got the pattern from my book "One-Skein Wonders" but I think my stitches turned out to be too tight for felting. I guess that's what they meant at personal threads when they said I should knit loosely (on larger needles) if I was to felt my bag. But again, I still think it turned out to be soooooooooooo cute... it would be a really nice gift for Mark's niece! I gotta wait for it to dry first though... and shave it, of course! ;)
