Crocheted Wool Bag

Well, the bag that will hold our Bibles for church is finally finished. Below you will find the progress and finished product...sort of. LOL Will explain...



This is about half way done complete with handles.


This is the finished bag before heading to it's extremely hot bath and aggitation in the washing machine.

Here is it in it's drying place.

Remember those handles above? It's amazing what happens when you add a little bit of hot water.

These bags are so thick and sturdy it is mind boggling to me.
Now, to explain, when it completely dries, I will feed the ends of the handles through the holes and sewing buttons on the outside of the handle securing each handle in place. I will post a last picture of it once I get to that point in the next day or two.
And...yes, this bag was crocheted. It certainly doesn't look like it now does it?
