I had a much better weaving result this time with the table runner project below. I hope the recipient likes it as it's a special gift in exchange for the antique wheel he gave me. Scroll down this page to see the wheel.
she knits and knits and knits and sometimes she spins too....

To Felt or to Weave
To felt or to weave .....that is the question, but it wasn't a dilemma for me. I decided to do both these last few days. The bag below made out of New Zealand Charisma felted verrrry quickly; thankfully I took Sue'a advice and checked it often. I must say it made me smile. I need to consider what type of button to use. Should it be an understated button that does not compete with the colors or a knitted /crocheted button. Time will tell.

Cindy...that table runner is beautiful! ...and I vote for a fancy button on the purty felted bag. :)
The bag is wonderful! I'd go with a bold button that picks up one or more of the bag colors. I am enjoying your weaving projects. How long have you been weaving? I hope you bring some of your FOs, both knit and woven, to the next guild meeting.
I'm with Kristen. I'd go with a bold button on that bag which is WONDERFUL by the way. Lovely weaving as well. Such a multi-talented lady!
I know the dilemma as I have had it with crochet and machine knitting--crochet is winning lately. I do love the felted bag! ...as to the button, I'd go for a bold button too. Lovely work that I can't wait to see in person. -Judith
