Purse almost finished!!

Well...I have almost finished the purse. Here is what it looks like now -- before I felted it....

I went to the library and got a few more books to get some ideas on designs. Since I still really don't know how to read a knitting pattern - I'll probably figure out a way to make it MY way! I'll keep practicing, though. I did get a DVD from the library that may help out quite a bit!

I guess I'd better try to learn all of this and do some practicing now because pretty soon, I really won't have time -- we're getting a house and will be moving hopefully this spring!! It's going to be a lot of work, a lot of sweating, etc.... We have a lot of ideas and are so excited about it!! We will be living about 8 -10 minutes away from my sister-in-law and brother-in-law and their soon to be two kids!!

It will be a nice country life that we have wanted for a long time!

OK...enough about that for now...I'll keep you updated!
